About

Class Description

• The “passing through” takes students through various exercises where the group will create dynamics that will be flexible, complex, getting the group to fit tight together, yet always keeping doors open for the unexpected.

• Trains you to be aware of the space and their bodies and at the same time be grounded. Understanding how to enter and exit the space with full presence, connecting with the people around you, creating spontaneous propositions as a group, using the natural spiral of the body to go through different pathways in the room without any collision.

• Understanding how to approach the floor without any fear.

• Finding a natural flow in the body through animal walks and movements which allows the whole body to transform and at the same time become instinctual, which on the whole is very essential for any physical practice.
