In this workshop, we will explore dynamic movement on the rope and different movement qualities, as tools for aerial composition.
The workshop begins with a dynamic floor-based warm-up that develops coordination, stamina, and body awareness. In the first part of the workshop, we will dive into dynamic technique and dynamic movement on the rope. We will focus on specific positions and tricks and explore their variations.
In the second part of the workshop, we will research different movement qualities, working both on the floor and in the air. These qualities serve as tools for aerial composition, helping to expand our creativity and expressive possibilities.
