[About the Workshop]
SPANISH:
Arriba, pero abajo, pero rápido, pero lento, pero salvaje, pero sensible.
Este taller se centra en la comprensión de la distribución y transferencia del peso, el uso de la relajación-tensión y el uso de la gravedad en conjunto para movernos de manera eficiente y libre, y por otro lado, en la creatividad y libertad que tenemos. puede encontrar dentro de este. Entonces, se basa en el funcionamiento de cada parte del cuerpo, como base en el suelo, o como parte libre del cuerpo para expresarse. Se enfoca también en la capacidad de hacer que los llamados “trucos” sean como movimientos, como cualquier otro elemento que usaríamos en la danza.

So, it´s based on how each part of the body is working, as a base on the ground, or as a free part of the body to express. It focuses also in the ability to make the so-called “tricks” just be like movements, like any other element we would use in dance.
