Contemporary Dance for People Over 60

Sun 15.12.2024 | 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Künstler*innenhaus Mousonturm - Probebühne 3

The workshop begins with a warm-up based on the principles of dance medicine. It softens and energizes the body to ensure optimal preparation for the movement requirements. The joints are moved thoroughly and individual movement abilities are explored. We work on fixed movement combinations as well as improvisations - solo, in pairs and in the whole group. The variety of movement approaches in contemporary dance offers the opportunity to deal with the movement techniques individually.
