Arrangeras av Dansalliansen i samarbete med Danscentrum Norr.
Jarkko Mandelin and Kinetic Orchestra is known for its distinctive movement style that combines acrobatic partnering with a strong artistic vision.
Jarkko Mandelin is contemporary dance choreographer who has specialised to floorwork and partnering. On Jarkko´s Floorwork workshop we study ideas and techniques that are close to mechanics of breakdance and capoeira but have qualities and aesthetics of contemporary dance.
On Jarkko´s workshops first part is always plays and games. Games are there to warm up but also to create open and stress free atmosphere to class. On longer workshops we take more time to unlock and understand different acrobatic skill and principals of floorwork. And study exercises and ideas Jarkko uses on his artistic work with Kinetic Orchestra. A lot of practising is done via traveling through the studio with short sequences where everybody have time and place to learn and test techniques. At the end of class we create long sequences of dance that flows on floor but also creates loops and continuous movement in other levels as well.
Workshop skill level will be adjusted to make sure that it will be joyful experience to all participants.
