Ricardo Urbina

MIXOLOGY IN CONTEMPORARY

A one-time accreditation is required for participation in the professional training. The accreditation allows you to purchase tickets for the professional training. Click here for the conditions of participation.

This training focuses on different movement dominance within the dancers’ body and explores not only movement but also emotions. Participants are challenged with their own limits, how far can they push within their ability, how much can they let the movement direct them without completely losing themselves. With a mix of ballet technique, contemporary and urban influences, this class seeks to broaden our intellectual skills as much as our physical ones.
