More than a sequence of daily classes.
The work asks dancers not only to execute movement, but to understand why it works, how it relates to space and music, and how to make clear artistic decisions.
Classical precision
Placement, coordination, musicality, strength and individual technical correction.
Choreographic intelligence
Timing, space, dynamics, intention and the structure behind movement.
The Forsythe perspective
Spatial awareness, movement choices and choreographic tools inspired by William Forsythe’s approach to movement and composition.
Professional perspective
Direct contact with the professional dance world through experienced artists, choreographers and ballet directors, with individual feedback on artistic development and future direction.
Repertoire & interpretation
Movement material is connected to musical structure, style, intention and performance decisions.
Individual development
Focused coaching helps each dancer recognise individual strengths, understand current priorities and define the next steps in their artistic and professional development.
A method for seeing, thinking and choosing in movement.
At ART of - Madrid Ballet Intensive these ideas are connected back to classical technique and repertoire. The aim is a dancer who can execute with precision and also respond intelligently to choreography.
