Contemporary dance

The first part of the workshop will focus on dance and movement training. In the second part, participants will explore various movement principles and improvise with them individually, in pairs, and finally with the whole group. The workshop will be dynamic and constantly in motion. No prior dance experience is required; we will work with the capabilities of the entire group. The workshop will be led by David Králík.
