About the workshop :
Nadine Gerspacher’s workshops delve into contemporary dance, blending movement tasks and scenarios to connect participants and explore the dynamics of body language. She creates a welcoming environment that encourages students to push their boundaries and engage deeply with their physicality. The class features exercises that enhance body awareness, focusing on breath, joint articulation, muscle tone, and stability to build physical strength. Students participate in technical exercises, including floor work, games, and intricate phrase compositions, designed to activate and ground their center for optimal movement freedom. Partner work, guided improvisations, and theatrical tasks infuse playfulness and creativity, while Nadine’s unique physicality, characterized by powerful yet detailed movements, offers a journey through contrasting textures and unexpected surprises.
