Contemporary Dance and Acrobatics Intensive with QUAN BUI NGOC
To whom we are addressing: professional dancers and dance students
We begin this season’s series of intensive workshops with Quan Bui Ngoc, currently a dancer and assistant with Les Ballets C de la B (Belgium). His virtuosity and a great ability to transmit offer dancers new tools to fuse contemporary dance and floor acrobatics. Quan uses different resources and necessary movement qualities to tackle a good physical preparation in class. He develops the choreographic material through technical phrases and individual improvisational tasks, in order for each of the participants to explore according to their possibilities and personal objectives.
This’s a workshop aimed at professionals or students in training who have the desire to delve into and defy one’s own limits.
Places are limited and will be accepted by order of registration.
