The class developes from plain and pure body-work / work-out exercises, through short floor- and standing combinations into more complex choreographic sequences. Some of the basic principles we will be working with are: finding, stregthening and shifting the center, being on and off balance, resting and exploding into space, taking risks. The class is very physical and energetic but encourages the participants to take decisions in order to find their own way of playing with quality, musicality and dynamics.
