For the third time in Berlin, this year with more tracks: 𝟰-𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗟𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗮𝗱𝗮 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗕𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗹 & 𝗟𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮! This time, 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗛𝗮𝘂𝗴𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 will be with us, too, for a part of the Teachers course and the Solo class. Thursday is a German public holiday (Christi Himmelfahrt), so we have a lot of time to enjoy, practice and learn from them. Ariel & Leticia and Caroline Haugsted are known for delivering very high quality class content, with a lot of knowledge in didactics and methodology. If you want to know more about the artists and their philosophy, they have many short teaching videos on their Instagram profile.

We will have 3 main packages including the 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗣 𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗦, and 3 more add-on tracks as 𝗙𝗢𝗖𝗨𝗦𝗘𝗗 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗣𝗦, depending on your level and current goal, (and your energy ).

 

The 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗣 𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗦 Thursday - Sunday will focus on how to become creative with the Lambada structures, by combining any Block A with any Block B, and how to build your own combinations and variations within the structures you know. You will experiment the importance of the Pause, and how to "spice up" your Lambada structures in a free dance. If you have taken part in the Lambada Mastery, this knowledge will help you a lot. For Lambada beginners or students who want to fresh up their Basic Structures, the Thursday Group Classes (4h) will give an overview of all important Basic structures you need in the upcoming days.
For intermediate and advanced dancers, there is the option to replace the Basic Structure class with a 𝗣𝗥𝗜𝗩𝗔𝗧𝗘 𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗦 𝗜𝗡 𝗔 𝗦𝗠𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗣. Pre-requisite for private class: knowledge of all Lambada basic structures, and registration with a partner (no rotation in the private class).

 

The 𝗙𝗢𝗖𝗨𝗦𝗘𝗗 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗣𝗦 have the goal to dig deeper in different aspects, taking place in a small group of max. 8 participants, and have a more individual approach:

 

• The 𝗦𝗢𝗟𝗢 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗞 consists of solo exercises for lines and posture with Caroline (all styles - not Lambada specific). In a small group, she will give a lot of individual feedback and recommendations for each dancer on what to work on, in order to improve balance, basic technique, and more conscience for your body.

 

• The 𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗦 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗞 will give you a theoretical and practical approach to Lambada and Zouk today, if you are a Br. Zouk or Lambada teacher, or you plan to start teaching Lambada soon. What is Lambada, and what is Zouk - what are the differences and similarities? What trends are we seeing in these dances, and how did we get there? How can we create a more inclusive community, embracing both Zouk and Lambada and showing our students how these are two branches of the same tree? How can we prepare our students to dance with students from the other branch and unite the two styles? Join a conversation about history, current trends, the structure of the dance, the music and expression, and learn some hands-on tools and exercises to help your students and your community explore this topic.

 

• The 𝗕𝗥. 𝗭𝗢𝗨𝗞 / 𝗟𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗔𝗗𝗔 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗦𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗞 (practical) can also be booked separately.
