NYC 9-Hour Intensive Seminar with Daniela & Luis

"EARTH, AIR, WATER, FIRE" INTENSIVE SEMINAR SATURDAY AND SUNDAY, APRIL 2ND AND 3RD Stay grounded, but learn how to float. Dance with fluidity, but learn how to interrupt and redirect the flow when the music asks for a surprise. We invite everyone to an intensive seminar inspired by the four elements: earth, air, water, fire, where we will explore individual and connection techniques to lend new qualities of movement to our dance. The seminar is progressive and intended to be taken as a whole unit. We will start from basic principles of posture, core, walking and build on this gradually to arrive at a a dance that makes use of the full palette of physical sensations. SCHEDULE Saturday, April 2nd 1:30-3:30pm: Earth Learning how to stay grounded and stable throughout the dance. Connecting to the floor and to the partner through the floor. Saturday, April 2nd 4-6pm: Air Learning how to change the density of the walk to create moments of floatingness. Combining this new quality with grounded moments. Sunday, April 3rd 1:30-3:30pm: Water Learning how to use physical principles to make our movements fluid, both individually and in connection with our partner. Sunday, April 3rd 4-6pm: Fire Learning how to interrupt the flow of movement in different ways to create interesting dynamics. Using elasticy, rebounds and oppositions in a gentle way. Sunday, April 3rd 6-7pm: Guided Practica Putting in practice the concepts learned during the weekend, integrating them with your very own dance.
