The aim of the course is to highlight the special expressive and physical abilities of each individual and to turn them into skills.

The teaching will include exercises of physical strengthening, flexibility and balance as well as physical improvisation in order to acquaint the students with their own strong means of expression and to control them on stage.

Techniques for active presence, connection and rhythm separation will also be taught.
