Hey guys, I have something special for those adventurous souls that regularly boost their adrenaline levels by competing or performing or those who only dream about it but are ready to start doing something for their dreams to come true.

A special addition workshop <<Competition and Show>>

The topics that we will cover:

-Types and levels of competitions 

-How to get ready for each type of the competition

-How to go through prelims 

-what to do in the finals

-what do judges look for 

 -skating and score sheets

-how to manage anxiety 

-how to choreograph a performance from scratch 

-how to choose the song for performance

-what is mapping

-how to work with the audience 

The workshop will include theoretical part (cozy talk with tea and cookies 😉, videos and power point) and practical part (competition, judging and choreographing exercises)  as well as digital print outs (bring a memory stick to  take care of our planet with less paperwork) for the notes and key points.

We will also have time for Q&A so prepare all the questions that have been bothering you beforehand.

We will also work through some videos as examples of competitions and performances (if you want us to work through your own video, check out what went wrong in the competition or performance or just proudly share your project, please let me know in advance) 

The workshop will have a different format from the regular workshops.

Dear Balboa Followers, I feel it’s high time for us to have a serious conversation 😉
Let’s talk Independence, Presence and Voice!

I see so many beautiful, talented & elegant followers nowadays that still struggle to have a strong presence in the dance. It's time to remember that you are a legitimate 50% of the couple, a strong co-creator of the dance, one of the protagonists and not merely a supporting role. So let me share with you my thoughts, ideas and experience. In this workshop we will cover:

* How to build your dance within the framework of a leader
* How to communicate your ideas to a leader
* How to create space and time for your variations, musicality and creativity
* How to develop your own unique style
* How to work on your dance without a leader
* How to build meaningful rhythms and footwork variations
* How to work with musicality

The workshop is built for Followers only, no partner needed!

Duration: 3 hours with 15 min break
Level: from Beg+ to Adv+
Language: English (with a bit of German)
Price: 35 Euro/person

Let me guess... You’ve been doing Solo Jazz classes for some time or maybe not. You know some cool choreographies, enjoy performing them or maybe not. Sometimes you try to incorporate Jazz moves in your couple dancing or maybe not and all that feels good, but …. When it comes to just dancing, improvising, being in the flow of music and movement, social dancing but without a partner you get stuck, it starts falling apart, you miss breaks, don’t react fast enough to whatever is happening in the music and do not feel good anymore.
Then this workshop is for you.

In the 3 hour workshop we will learn:
* how to build the flow of constant solo movement
* how to train the quality of the moves
* how to enlarge your solo moves vocabulary
* how to connect your dance to music

This workshop will teach you how to dance solo in real time without any choreographies.

Duration: 3 hours with 15 min break
Level: Beg+ / Adv+
