Tanzen in Mitte & Neukölln This dance class researches an organic way of moving in space dynamically without stressing or straining the body, while utilizing each persons unique abilities. Beginning with basic movement exercises, getting into our bodies and feeling more than moving, pairing up and supporting each other, we will warm up the body in a soft yet constructive way letting go of any stress held within. Then, we will move on to improvisation focused on a sensual approach to movement that encourages self-respect and uniqueness, in order to connect in a pleasing way with our bodies while progressing into more detailed and complex tasks. Choreography will follow, involving changes in dynamics and levels from floorwork to standing phrases, and interlacing improvisation. The goal here is to see each person dance their own body in space enjoying the act of movement while preserving their individuality. The hunt for technique is something that we will give importance to but not to the point that it will hold us back from going on in case something is not working. No dance should be danced if it's not enjoyed.
