flomentum: flight momentum
flowmentum embodies science physics principles to fall like water and fly like the wind. Harnessing gravity to turn falling into flying, this class aims to build dynamic, reactive movement, on and off of the floor. flomentum is influenced by contemporary dance, yoga, capoeira, acrobatics, and breaking techniques. Jumping between functional improvisation concepts and choreographed combinations, participants will unlock new pathways and harness the power of their own momentum!
the description reflects an artist’s idea which was developed at the time it was submitted to b12. it may have changed by the time the workshop or the performance project is starting. please stay flexible. thank you!
