Adult program (18+)
PULSE (18+let) – CONTEMPORARY DANCE
TUESDAY 18:30-20:00
Contemporary dance classes are designed for youth and adults who wish to deepen their understanding of movement, body expression, and creativity. In these classes, we will explore various contemporary dance techniques (release technique, floor work, contact improvisation, and composition), investigate personal movement expression, and build dance sequences as well as short choreographic pieces.
A special focus will be placed on improvisation, body awareness, spatial awareness, and connection with other dancers. The classes are suitable both for those with some prior experience and for those who wish to encounter contemporary dance for the first time in a deeper and creative way.
PULSE+ (30+) – CONTEMPORARY DANCE
THURSDAY 19:00-20:30
This group is designed for adult dancers who wish to maintain flexibility, strength, and expressiveness through contemporary dance. In a pleasant and supportive creative environment, we will explore the principles of contemporary dance, working with weight, breath, gravity, and the fluidity of movement.
The focus will be on adapted dance exercises, body awareness, improvisation, and the gradual creation of movement phrases. The group encourages creativity, freedom of expression, and group connection, without pressure for perfection, but with a desire for movement and exploration.
BALLET FOR ADULTS?
Ballet technique is important in dance for several reasons:
- Body alignment: Ballet technique teaches correct body alignment, helping maintain good posture and prevent injuries.
- Strength and flexibility: It includes exercises that build muscle strength and increase flexibility, which are essential for performing demanding dance movements.
- Coordination: Ballet consists of complex movements and combinations that require strong body coordination.
- Aesthetics: Ballet technique includes elements such as port de bras (arm movement) and expressive facial work, contributing to the overall aesthetic quality of dance.
- Discipline: Ballet is a highly structured dance style that requires consistent practice and perseverance to achieve technical precision.
For this reason, knowledge of ballet technique is beneficial in other dance styles as well, as it improves technique, strength, and elegance in movement.
