TP #4 – Fluidity / Virtuosity

My workshop is a physical training based on floor work. We start the class by working our flexibility by means of different stretches, linked to the breath. We use the weight of the body and the release to achieve organic and continuous movement. We go on with some isolated technical balancing exercises (on the hands, the forearms, the shoulders, the head). We work with different points of support and we do some small acrobatics (rolls, bridges) in order to develop controlled movement when traveling the space: we combine jumps, turns, drops and being off balance; all of this while playing with risk-taking, taking the space, and also searching for different movement qualities. We end the class by combining all these elements into fluid and virtuosic choreographic phrases.
