SLOW MOTION – CONTROL & CONDITIONING 1.6., 4.6., 8.6., 11.6. / 4 times
After Heatwave, it’s time to slow down – and find new control in movement. Slow Motion – Control & Conditioning will bring fluidity, tenacity and refined precision to your dance.
This four-time intensive course with a focus on technique focuses on the power, endurance and body control of slow movement. As the tempo slows down, every isolation, accent and transition requires focus and strength.
You will learn:
đź’Ž undulations and fluidity of movement
đź’Ž control and endurance
đź’Ž harmony between movement and its stopping
đź’Ž body care that promotes mobility
The intensive course is suitable for anyone who knows the basics of fusion belly dance and wants clarity and precision in their dance technique as well as new inspiration for body care. The course will be played with calm and rhythmic electronic music.
🤝 Slow Motion works as a standalone course, but also as a perfect continuation of HEATWAVE – Metal Bellydance Summer Lab! Together, these courses offer an effective and intensive dance package before moving on to summer pastures.
You can attend the class in person or online. Recordings of each class will be available for the students. The recordings will be available for a month after the end of the course.
