Classes of contemporary dance and acrobatics :)
These classes combine different techniques and styles of contemporary dance with accent on technique and choreography. Class usually starts with physical exercises for strengthening the body and warming the muscles focusing on stamina, condition and cardio work. It is followed by practicing technique which is based on acrobatics and phrases across
the floor, including different jumps, slides, upside down positions, moving trough hand stands, cartwheels, bridges, kick-ups and similar elements. Every class also includes developing a choreographic phrase based on these elements and practicing musicality, coordination, memory, rhythm and dynamics. Classes are open for all levels of dancers/non-dancers/new-dancers. :)
Anybody can try and progress is there for everyone who finds enjoyment in movement. :)
