Men Only: Tango Escencia, with Mario Ferraro, Saturday/ 6th Febr

Aloha, prieteni!

In acest weekend, sambata, 6 februarie, va propunem a man to man perspective, o incursiune catre radacinile tangoului: Men Only: Tango Escencia, un workshop deosebit, cu Mario.

Probabil este primul workshop de acest gen din Romania, prin faptul ca desi este doar pentru barbati, nu este unul clasic de tehnica pentru barbati ci...este cu totul altceva:
- originile dansului
- "personajele" din tango
- Epoca de Aur a tangoului (folosirea versurilor), tangoul in Europa, tangoul astazi
- atitudinea barbatului leader in tango
- ascultarea versurilor din muzica de tango si (ex)punerea lor in dans
- dans bazat pe interpretarea muzicii; cum se interpreteaza muzica de tango
- dans, studiu doar intre barbati
- cum gasesti strategia prin care sa ai o "conversatie" foarte placuta si autentica timp de 3 minute...cat tine un tango, un dans al carui leader esti tu: "When you dance, you have a three minutes conversation" (o conversatie prin dans, nu verbala!:)
- cum dansezi ascultand, simtind si exprimand muzica si nu gandind in pasi/ structuri
- dezvoltarea unui dans bazat pe istoria tangoului, pe muzica si interpretarea ei
...& alte surpize :)

Nu este un seminar teoretic ci unul experiential, ce va imbina "teoria" cu (accentul pus pe) practica.
!Seminarul este doar pentru barbati, accesul femeilor care sunt si leader in tango este stric interzis!

15.00-20.00: 4 ore seminarii+ 1 ora practica (doar pentru participanti)
*la practica, participantii invita o tanguera cu care vor sa puna in practica tot ceea ce se va experimenta la seminarii; pentru femei, practica este gratuita*

Cost: 250 Ron

Workshop Body Awareness for Tango Dancers, with Marcela & Mario, 30-31 January '10

          …to study and understand how our body works most efficiently in the dance…

What is Body Awareness?

BAM (Body Awareness Method) is a body corporal organization by the use of the body-image in terms of the space. 

BAM sees the body like a connection net. When some connection is missing, the body loses the natural organization and this method helps you find an efficient way to connect it again. 

The time it takes for the body to become aware depends on the expectations and limitations of each dancer, which will be assessed individually.

Teaching your body the mechanisms of the movement

 Normally, we learn to dance by copying the instructor, whose movements we try to re-create with our own bodies. The learning process, however, can be made more efficient as the individual becomes aware of his body, its limitations and how to tackle them.

This workshop will focus on:

Become aware of your limitations: This is the first step towards “waking” the body, as well as providing a blueprint for the change your body will undergo.

“Un-block” your body: Your body’s range of motion may be limited due to blockages. The first step to freeing up the affected body parts is awareness of the problem; the second step is learning how to mobilize these parts; and the third is to integrate them into the rest of the body. Exercises: Release, Articulate, Dissociate

Organize your body: Essential to “awakening” the body is learning proper alignment, a pre-requisite for organic movement. Exercises: mechanisms of movement, neurological and physical connections between parts of the body, body alignment, integration, information flow throughout the body

Manage your Energy: Essential to improving quality of movement, on-stage presence and stamina, among other things. The following exercises are designed to meet this specific need.

*Eutony to use the appropriate amount of muscle tension required by each movement

*Release tension exercises to effectively flow between these two complementary states.

*Spatial organization exercises to use the space around as the extension of your own body.

Build your confidence: Training will focus on communicating, integrating and listening to the other, with the aim of achieving greater harmony when dancing together with a partner. Exercises: Centering, Responsiveness, etc.
