This class will be based on the principles of German Tanztheater but will also incorporate elements of Graham Technique.
We will start the class with a contemporary barre or in the centre straight away.
With an emphasis on expression and freedom inside of a technique we will work with the principles of swing, drop, reach, contraction, centre-driven movement, nuanced weight transfer, intention, focus and performance. The class expands the dancers’ technical, dramatic and artistic range. The main goal is to use the technique in order to express an emotional state. The class aims to let go of any unnecessary extras and consequently strives to use conscious and meaningful movements
It is the investigation of working from the inside out, from placing the bones where the muscles and the mind are allowed to function efficiently. This is an excellent opportunity for dancers to either be introduced to or continue the pursuit of German Tanztheater and the Graham technique.
Special II

Brand new course from September
Dance and Film
for Dancers and Filmmakers
(12 Sep 2017 – 17 Oct 2017)
Tuesday 16:15 – 17:45
Explore the fusion of dance as a medium for video and vice versa. Joining either of our two courses running simultaneously across a six week period in the autumn term, dance students and videography/photography students, working separately for the first session so as to gain particular skills relevant to their own specialism, would then come together to explore the creativity and proficiency relevant to the craft of combining dance and film making.
This combined area of study provides a great opportunity for all participants to gain new insights and appreciation for each other’s art forms.
Danilo Moroni will lead the sessions for the Filmmakers:
