Do you want to learn to create audio-visuals like those of Pixel? This dance and technology workshop, addressed to schools and educational groups, explores the way in which mapping is part of dance shows and becomes another performer.
Open to all ages and skills, this family dance and circus workshop will teach you the basic concepts of ground and pair acrobatics and the hand-to-hand technique. Leading the activity will be Amer i Àfrica Circ Cia., of Barcelona, members of the original cast of Block, and local circus artist Ginés Belchí.
Through its performances, the company Via Katlehong Dance defends the Culture Pantsula. In the 60s and 70s, under the apartheid regime in South Africa, rural black populations are displaced from large cities and regrouped in municipalities.
The objective of this masterclass is that professional or training dancers, without technical effort, find themselves spontaneously and share the gesture that is personal to them. It's about creating a link from one body to another, learning from each other, discovering and sharing hidden gestures, looking at each other and reacting. "I see flamenco, as a key that can open new spaces in a body," says the maestro Galván.
No physical condition or age is required. For all levels.
Comfortable clothes and shoes. Flamenco shoes are not necessary.
