This technique teaches me about the spirals of my body and my relationship with the floor, moving in a direct and intentional way\u2014it is something I always have with me in my pocket and use when necessary, just like other techniques.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, the dynamics increase progressively, using images and touch to explore and explode each short exercise, through which participants are challenged to find their own solutions by doing, discovering individually which paths cross their bodies, rather than any pre-established form or formula. We will work with principles and states, starting from the exercises, and challenge the usual idea of right and left. The proposed exercises change every day, so there is no need to get attached!<\/p>\n<p>The technique focuses on the relationship with the ground, using simple movement sequences and practicing speed and energy release throughout the body to activate the center. There is special attention to the extremities as extensions of the center and indicators of direction, proposing awareness and clarity to the movement. The material challenges each participant to discover the primary laws of physics: cohesion and expansion, and therefore many basic exercises are deconstructed in a more exploratory work to achieve the necessary individual state.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>[Cristina Planas Leit\u00e3o][\/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 css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Informations<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_accordion active_tab=&#8221;false&#8221; collapsible=&#8221;yes&#8221; style=&#8221;boxed_accordion&#8221;][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;Who is it for&#8221; title_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#eeeeee&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1771940222344{padding-left: 25px !important;}&#8221;]+ 16 with experience in dance or performing arts, interested individuals with little experience in dance and movement practices.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;Schedule&#8221; title_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#eeeeee&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1772115315147{padding-left: 25px !important;}&#8221;]<strong>Dates:<\/strong> August 24 to 28, 2026<br \/>\n<strong>Time:<\/strong> 7:00 p.m.\u20139:30 p.m.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;Venue&#8221; title_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#eeeeee&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1769598723656{padding-left: 25px !important;}&#8221;]Forum Dan\u00e7a \/ Espa\u00e7o da Penha<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Google Maps\" href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/X9rjKAWtYRx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Travessa do Calado, 26B, 1170-070 Lisboa<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;Participation fee&#8221; title_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#eeeeee&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1772123772180{padding-left: 25px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u20ac70<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4>Discounts<\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>10% discount when registering for more than 1 workshop<\/li>\n<li>15% discount when registering for more than 3 workshops<\/li>\n<li>20% discount when registering for more than 4 workshops<\/li>\n<li>15% discount for people who are participating or have participated in Forum Dan\u00e7a long-term courses (PACAP or PEPCC)<\/li>\n<li>10% discount for dance students<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;Application form&#8221; title_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#eeeeee&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1771596175931{padding-left: 25px !important;}&#8221;]All fields are required.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1771597830984{padding-left: 25px !important;}&#8221;]<form id=\"forminator-module-35707\" class=\"forminator-custom-form forminator-custom-form-35707\" method=\"post\" data-forminator-render=\"0\" data-uid=\"69f1e493e9b17\"><div role=\"alert\" aria-live=\"polite\" class=\"forminator-response-message forminator-error\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/div><\/form>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_accordion_tab][\/vc_accordion][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Bios<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;60px&#8221;][vc_accordion active_tab=&#8221;false&#8221; collapsible=&#8221;yes&#8221; style=&#8221;boxed_accordion&#8221;][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;Cristina Planas Leit\u00e3o&#8221; title_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#eeeeee&#8221;][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1713804888093{padding-right: 25px !important;padding-left: 25px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;35758&#8243; img_size=&#8221;&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<strong>Cristina Planas Leit\u00e3o \u2014 Curator, artistic director, and teacher<\/strong>, she has been developing teaching methodologies since 2010 that promote a somatic, critical, and autonomous experience of the body.
