BodiBalance™
Dance Workshops
by Carol Fonda
Improve your
English and learn dance in famous dance schools in the USA, among
others Broadway Dance Center - school known from TV hit 'You can
dance'...
Carol Fonda
created BodiBalance for dancers who want to improve their skills and
open their minds, bodies and emotions to new possibilities. These
workshops are the journey, the aim of which is discovering your own
personality and your own body. They will enable you to gain
conscious of your body, so that the way you dance can change
completely.
BodiBalance Workshops comprise 2-hour
classes every day with professional and qualified teachers. In
the first week, participants of the workshops focus mainly on BodiBalance
Move Principles. During next weeks the students learn how to
improve their dance and make Jazz, ballet, Modern, or any other
chosen style out of it.
The classes are designed to shift gradually from the neutral calm
state to the state of "energetic hurricane", which gives
your dance moreartistic expression.
