APRIL VESELKO - Dance workshop

Описание: V klasu SODOBNA AKROBATIKA bomo na organski način postopno po korakih spoznavali talne trike, trike na rokah ter trike v skokih. Klas bomo začeli s primernim ogrevanjem, ki bo temeljilo na kombiniranju fleksibilnosti in moči, potrebnih za varno in pravilno izvajanje akrobacij. Nadaljevali bomo z daljšim setom vaj čez prostor, skozi katere bomo telo postopno postavili iz horizontale v vertikalo, od tal do skokov. Cilj klasa je povezana uporaba naučenih elementov v energični plesni sekvenci po načelih kombiniranja pretočnosti, učinkovitosti in principa "soft and strong". Klas je namenjen naprednim gibalcem s predznanjem.

In CONTEMPORARY ACROBATICS we will organically and step by step get familiar with floor tricks, handstand tricks and jump tricks. We will start the class with appropriate warm up, based on combining flexibility and strength needed for correct and safe execution of acrobatics. We will continue with a longer set of exercises through space, gradually waking up our body from horizontal to vertical, from floorwork to jumps. The aim of class is to connect the learnt tricks into an energetic dance sequence led by the principles of combining fluidity, efficiency and "soft and strong" approach. Class is aimed for advanced movers with previous experiences in dance or/and acrobatics..
