This workshop is a part of a series of 6 workshops designed for anyone seeking to deepen their body awareness, expand their dance vocabulary, and enhance their improvisational skills.
The workshops are welcoming and judgment-free, focusing on personal growth in movement, confidence, and the joy of dancing. They prioritize exploration and self-expression over perfecting techniques or aesthetics and provide a supportive and non-competitive space.
These workshops are developed for:
- Dancers of any style, who want to deepen their improvisational skills and explore new techniques, including dancers of hip hop, Latin and social dances, folk, fusion, contemporary etc.
- Physical theatre practitioners who want to develop their physical expressiveness and connection with movement beyond the stage.
- Beginner and advanced dancers who want to explore and feel confident with improvisation.
- Anyone aiming to connect with their body and find inner balance through dance.

Workshop 4: Take a deep breath: how breathing enhances movement qualities and connection
In this workshop we will connect with our body and inner stillness. We’ll start with exercises rooted in Body-Mind Centering® to establish a calm foundation, enhancing your awareness of natural movements through intentional breathing. As we progress, though structured improvisation, we will discover how breath influences movement quality, and experiment with uplifting and grounding effects of breath. Finally, we will work on developing intuitive rhythm and connection with a dance partner through synchronised breathing.
Workshops series:
The series is thoughtfully designed to progress over time, building on previous concepts. However, each workshop is a self-contained experience, allowing participants to attend as many—or as few—as they wish.
