Modern Kids

Course with Sofia Klein Herrero

In this workshop, children discover the world of modern dance with great enthusiasm. Varied and creative exercises promote coordination, strength, flexibility, balance, endurance, motor skills and concentration. The dancing takes place in a safe and supportive environment where children can develop freely. In addition to learning the basics of dance, children have the opportunity to develop their own movement patterns and put their creative ideas into practice in small composition tasks. They also learn basic improvisation techniques as a tool to expand their artistic expression in dance. Working together also strengthens their sense of rhythm, spatial awareness and social skills such as mindfulness and teamwork. The focus is always on the joy of dancing, encouraging the children to develop their own unique artistic expression.
