A methodology that makes the difference
Behind every great dancer stands proper methodology, knowledge, and professional training. This is the foundation of this workshop.
The event combines established techniques such as Graham and Release, enriched with elements of jazz dance, improvisation, and applied biomechanics. This is not just a class—it is a complete approach to developing the body, movement, and expression.
When the methodology is correct, the body works more efficiently, the risk of injury decreases, and results become sustainable. This is what distinguishes professional training from an occasional approach.
Dance is art, but behind it lies science—and here the two come together in the best possible way.
Special lecture: Teaching Methodology
As part of the event, there will also be a lecture dedicated to teaching methodology, curated by Paolo Londi.
It will explore in depth the principles behind his system:
- Fundamentals of Graham Technique
- Principles of Release Technique
- The connection between jazz dance and contemporary movement
- Applied biomechanics and kinesiology
- The importance of improvisation in dancer development
This methodology is designed to develop not only movement but also body awareness. It is suitable for young dancers (13–22 years old), but its principles are valuable for anyone who wants to build a strong professional foundation.
