PARTNER WORK
The Pleasure of Dancing
This course invites participants to discover partner work through the Lafortune method, a fun and accessible approach that focuses on listening, trust, and quality of contact. Through guided exercises, participants explore movement in pairs, developing their sense of shared rhythm, coordination, and ease of movement with each other. No previous experience is required—only a desire to move in relation to others, with curiosity and kindness.
Discover new ways to unleash your talent and stay fit through contemporary dance.
