Technique
The technique is based on release technique, which means releasing certain muscle groups and using only the necessary ones, and thus better understanding your body, its physical, psychological and mental scope and vary choreography.
The object of study includes anatomic details: bone structure, muscular, respiratory and nervous systems, sometimes offered as themes at the beginning of the class with their further elaboration in exercises and an opportunity to use them in practice (in the dance combinations in the final part of the class). Major attention is paid to the three basic programs essential for contemporary dance: balance, articulation (impulse, inertia), gravitation (centre of gravity, work with your weight), and, as a consequence, to parterre technique (work with the floor), techniques of falling and shifting balance. If needed, the abovementioned work can be presented in group exercises and in pairs.
Yoga
Ashtanga Vinyasa, or dynamic yoga, is one of the branches of Hatha Yoga. The object of study is asanas (specific postures referring to balance, strength, stamina, flexibility) and pranayama (a breath technique). Special attention is paid to vinyasas (linking of the movement to the breath).
