PTZS meets TanzLuzern: Impro with Paula Alonso

Profitraining Zentralschweiz meets TanzLuzern
Information about the format

Class description
In my classes I aim to help all the participants to connect with the pleasure of dancing and moving. Supported by the music, I guide an improvisation class that will encourage the participants to find all the qualities their bodies are able to experience and communicate, and the efficiency of the energy while dancing. Through different images we will explore the use of the space, movement qualities, tempos, intentions… and of course the use of the floor to help us move through the space and its different levels. The class is intended to be enjoyed by dancers of all kinds of backgrounds.
