Workshop 1: Exploring floorwork through dance improvisation by Agnieszka
This workshop introduces participants to the fundamentals of floorwork and level transitions, drawing inspiration from somatics, contemporary dance, improvisation, and partner dance methodologies.
Through guided exercises and improvisational tasks, participants will develop comfort and agility in navigating the floor while exploring how movement can be initiated from different parts of the body. Using partner exploration and improvisational prompts, participants will discover creative pathways and refine their sense of balance and flow.
