Workshops I offer
Dance Expression and English 

Dance:
The types of dance and the methods we´ll use are:
  • '5Rhythms' and 'Contact improvisation' as a base to create our own dance practice.
  • Dance with an emphasis on improvisation and listening to one's natural movement.
  • Focusing on presence, perception and a physical dialog with the other dancers

Through the Dance Expression class we aim to free ourselves from the conventional ideas of form and “dance”. For example: not trying to do a "dance move” but dancing as a means of expression and exploring dance as an art form. In doing so we provide a real opportunity for creating a unique group piece.   
Language Learning / Communication
This course is suitable for:
  • Children who already speak english who will maintain their skills
  • Children who do not speak english will learn to speak
  • All english levels welcome. All instruction is in English and through language immersion the students will build up confidence and improve their english skills.
Confidence /Community / International Understanding
In Dance Expression this means: 
  • Teaching is through non-violent communication methods  
  • Each student will have the opportunity to learn how to lead and follow in a group and create their own dance. Providing the student with confidence in leadership and community skills.
  • International understanding- bringing children from different backgrounds together to create dance/art/theatre together.

Within the course there is an option for an extension to work with musicians and a composer, together we’d focus on the art of improvisation with a dance group. Responding to each other in the moment and building on the communication between the dancer and the musician.
