Returning to our studios for her 3rd summer, Tijen Lawton invites you to challenge the way you process movement.

In her workshop, you will actively engage with:
⚡️ Resistance & Resonance
⚡️ Velocity & Resolution
⚡️ Non-linear change

This practice isn't about repeating steps—it's a continuous dialogue between awareness and action. Tijen’s approach allows you to release the physical habits holding you back, breaking them down to build a more available, adaptive presence on stage.

If you are ready to take conscious risks and uncover a more raw, instinctive way of dancing, this week is designed for you.

At Summer Intensive Portugal, we believe that "play" is one of the most effective ways to learn. When we play games, we bypass our over-analytical minds and tap into instinctive movement, quick reflexes, and genuine connection with others.

The best breakthroughs often happen when you’re laughing too hard to notice how much you’re actually learning.

Do you prefer a strict studio environment or one that leaves room for play?
