Contemporary

Contemporary (or contemporary) dance, like all other techniques, has an approach in order to form and place the dancer’s body.

The specifics of contemporary dance are relation to the ground (contact with the ground, evolution of the body on the ground …), the relation to the body (bodily sensation, interiority, relation to the skeleton …), the relation to other, the relationship to space as a place of movement, the relationship to time (music is not always preponderant as it can be in other styles, the silence and the musicality of the body are also used.

The technique allows the dancer to know his body, to use it without hurting himself, to develop his bodily capacities in order to master it, to work on the “kinesphere” (space accessible directly to the members of a person, which extends all around her, to the tips of her fingers and feet stretched in all directions), to have the tools necessary to tackle the creation and taking of risks and the expression of energies.

Course of a session:
– Warm-up (series of choreographed exercises that prepare and structure the body).
– Work of movement and coordination in space.
– Choreographic sequence.
– Workshop work, improvisation, development of the student’s creative and artistic potential.
