Dor Mamalia
Fluid space
as a dedicated dance enthusiast, i've immersed myself in the world of dance for many years, navigating its demands and seeking answers due to the numerous injuries i've encountered. my focus has been on applying principles that allow movement within the maximum range, ensuring efficiency and avoiding harm, even in precarious moments. in my classes, i explore gravity, body textures, movement chains, spatial dynamics, organic movement, asymmetry versus symmetry, opposing forces, groove, coordination, and precise execution of technique. the classes will focus on contemporary technique, emphasising floor work, improvisation, and challenging movement combinations. it is a workshop in which dynamic, flexible movement converges with creativity in an environment free from rigid boundaries. participants explore free-flowing movement, navigating and expressing themselves within a versatile, ever-changing space. since 2011 i've shared my practice with professional companies, offering morning classes to entities like the royal danish ballet, braunschweig state theatre, ndt2, tanz luzerner theatre, danish dance theatre, and rostock state theatre. additionally, i engage in educational and pedagogical work with dance academies, private schools, and dance programs globally.
please be aware of our early bird special offer for this workshop! you can apply for this offer up until the 15th of september 2024. after the 15th the regular workshop fee applies. applications are accepted up until one day before the workshops starts.
