If you fall, I’ll be there (Floor)

The weight and the intention. Trace for a dance research.
The meeting offers an approach to the ‘Flying Low’ technique, a technique created and developed by Master David Zambrano.
This technique focuses primarily on the relationship between the dancer and the floor / ground / roots, on the relationship
between the dancer and the other and on the relationship between dancer and the space.
Will be used simple movement patterns that include the breath, the speed and the release of energy through the body in order to activate the relationship between the center and the joints, moving in a more efficient way and working to keep the body centered.
