Workshops

Master classes are not only new information, new movements and new feelings in dance.
Master classes are also communication, good new acquaintances and friendly hugs, and now at the party you know almost everyone, despite the vast geography of our country.

Do not forget that master classes are concentrated information. Perhaps not everything will work out right away, but some things will have to be worked on for several months. But exactly, what you’ve seen and heard will come in handy and will accompany you in your dance life.

Perhaps not all physical conditions of your body are enough. And this is also worth taking care of. Do not neglect warm-up before classes and stretching after (or at the end of the day before going to bed)
Instead of morning coffee, take a swim in the pool. This will invigorate the brain and turn on almost all the muscles in your body.

What we want to achieve - beauty and comfort! The beauty of movement, the beauty of interaction and the beauty of your dance. And so that you feel comfortable and comfortable inside yourself.


Solo Intensive by Benji

This is 3 hours of Benji’s explosive energy, vivid emotions, a lot of solo practice, a lot of new and so forgotten old, a lot of sweat, a lot of physiology, a search for the necessary muscles and their capabilities, a lot to work on and improve yourself.
