Dynamic Movements Seminar


  • Dancify Eikenga 11 Oslo, Oslo, 0579 Norway (map)

During this seminar we will look at different ways of making the dance more dynamic, by expanding the range of different qualities of movement like speed, weight, size and shape. The more control you have over the dynamic range, the more freedom you have interpreting the music.

To achieve this, we are going to work on the technical aspects of:

  • controlling the weight transfer
  • compression and tension in the embrace and stabilizing muscles
  • using different types of dissociation to prepare dynamic changes

Then we will practice using these techniques through tango sequences with changes of dynamics, and experiment with using this to interpret different musical textures and qualities.

Level: Intermediate/Advanced

We always strive to adapt the level of these classes on an individual basis, to simplify movements and focus on learning the right technique for less experienced dancers, and to challenge more experienced dancers with refining their technique and mastery of each movement. To benefit from this seminar you should feel comfortable in both parallel and cross systems, and with leading/following forward and backward ochos.
