Micro dancing and close embrace
All you need to know to turn tiny movements into enormously pleasurable dance. You will learn about the frame, the posture and the basics of movement quality that make the difference.
A small dance usually goes with a closer frame, called the close embrace. You will learn how to navigate this frame and explore the abundance of what it offers to you and your dance partner.
And have you heard about the breath leading?
Micro dancing is a part of many dance styles and, fortunately, is more and more present in the contemporary balfolk scene. My aim is to give you solid skills and tools to experiment with and discover your own micro experience.
The boring but important part: The workshop operates on a partner rotation basis. Because of the very nature of the close embrace, the workshop starts with the part dedicated to the consent. To ensure the group's safety, participation is only possible for those who attend the consent part of the workshop. Make sure you’re there on time :)
