Contemporary/Modern Kids 1
Instructor: Tjaša Šramel
Age: 5 - 6 y/o
Time: Thursday, 16:40 - 17:40, Studio 4
This workshop is intended for dancers who have some dancing experience. Throughout the year, the workshop gains a structure of a dance training, which is still playful and interesting for children. The exercises enable us to learn basic dance elements, we explore the space (diagonal, floor, jumps), but above all we encourage children to be independent in their movement and execution of choreographies. Stage orientation regarding space and dance partners is the foundation of a good performance; therefore, the youngest dancers are being encouraged to develop these concepts.
