The proposal is to provide a meeting space in which the alternation between the three artists enables a context of sharing and transit so that different bodily practices intersect both in what they have in common and in the specificities that each artist and their work proposals will allow them to experience.<br \/>\nFrom this exchange between teachers\/artists and students\/artists, the aim is to provide a context for experimentation that activates in each participant the availability and readiness necessary for a tour of practices that seek, as a common point, to provide the experience of creative tools through dance and the body in movement.<br \/>\nIn our classes, the different techniques and training are not an end in themselves, but a resource for a more powerful and self-aware body. From there, we try to activate a sensitive, accessible and porous body, with more vitality and better energy circulation, more resilient and malleable to its surroundings. Finally, we seek to mobilize a more inventive body that is constantly open to new updates in its ways of being.<br \/>\nThe Tuesday and Thursday classes are aimed at anyone interested in dance and movement practices. That&#8217;s why not only dance artists and beginners are welcome, but also people who have no previous experience of body practices. Curiosity and availability are the only requirements for joining us.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;80px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Bios<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<strong>Josefa Pereira<\/strong> (BR\/PT) is a choreographer and performer.
