Workshop
with
Alleyne Dance
In the frame of Winter Tanz 2019/20
Dynamics, Rhythm & Texture is a physical Contemporary workshop, which will involve strong, complex and technical sequences in and out of the floor, focusing on quality, initiation, performance and stamina. Throughout the sessions, improvisation will also be explored as part of self development, stemming from a physical intention. The significant factors for the workshop are to develop the dancers' physicality, flexibility, technique, build awareness for textures in movement, stimulate the creative mind, driving from passion, musicality and honesty. Alleyne Dance has a slogan – Passion and Sweat; passion will lead you into a sweaty situation. In their practise they study how physicality can create an emotion or character.
