Keren Ben Shachar
Flying Low & Floorwork

During the classes we will practice elements that focus on our relationship with the floor. You can expect to work with sliding, rolling, running, challenge verticality and experiment with new movement patterns. Each class will start with a warm-up followed by floorwork elements, which will be integrated into dance phrases inspired by ‘flying low technique.’

You will explore how to combine qualities of softness and precision, while smoothly transitioning through the different levels (i.e. floor, mid-level, standing). By working with the principles of the technique one can discover how to use limitations as space to grow in. Once you become familiar with the patterns, we will explore working with different speeds, spatial directions, and add movement complexity, while introducing soft acrobatic elements to further challenge and expand your movement vocabulary. Additionally to the technical work, we will keep our joy of moving and dancing together!

It is recommended to wear long pants & a sleeved shirt for protecting the skin when sliding / working with the floor.

The classes are held at Dansehallerne, Franciska Clausens Plads 27 DK-1799 Copenhagen V in Studio 3.
