De volledige informatie is beschikbaar in het Frans en het Engels. Sommige onderdelen hebben we ook in het Nederlands vertaald.
Na het succes van de vorige edities geven Laure Fourest en Koen Dhondt een volledige week dansworkshop in La Clé de Sol in Marsaz, een klein dorpje in de Drôme regio Frankrijk. Bereid je voor op een geweldig week vol plezier, bijleren, mensen ontmoeten, lekker eten van Anamaria, zon en veel dansen!
 


Advanced workshop

This workshop is open for people who have already followed a Folk & Tango workshop with Laure and Koen, as well as for experienced folk dancers who already have some basic knowledge of tango (at least some hours of initiation). Please read the paragraph "Level" at the bottom of this page!

 

Programme 
Approximately 5 hours of dance lesson per day: folk couple dances, tango & traditional dances. There will be two half days free to go swimming or explore the area! Lots of free practice time. Each morning will start with 30 minutes of body warm-up (stretching, massage, etc).

This week's workshop aims to provide you with all kinds of tools and experiences to enrich your way of dancing, mainly in couple dances, but also in some trad dances. The main purpose of the tango classes offered is to refine your body skills in the folk couple dances.

  • Further refine your body awareness to gain more freedom, precision and comfort 
  • Deepen your knowledge of each of the couple dances and learn to give relief to your dance by adapting it to their specificities
  • Develop your ability to guide and/or follow, and apply it to new variations
  • Refine your musical listening skills and expand your rhythmic vocabulary
  • Work on your ability to improvise while doing justice to the specific tastes of each dance
  • Explore the specific movements and body styles of some traditional dances

 
The work on body awareness in dance will allow us to dive into the exploration of this great mishmash called "musicality" and of the dialogue that we, as dancers, are led to initiate with the musical proposals that are made to us: to open our ears, to become aware of the rhythmic and melodic richness of the pieces, to get out of our usual movements by developing new types of vocabulary, to be able to choose the musical elements that we want to interpret, etc…

In our opinion, what makes a beautiful couple dance is the comfort of the abrazo, the quality of the connection, and the harmony found by the three of us: you, me and the music. This workshop will explore these three notions in greater depth.


Each teacher will also give classes around his or her own speciality. We have 2 rooms and can therefore separate the group if necessary.

  • Laure: Argentine Tango, body warm-up, musicality, posture and body work based on some anatomy notions (Folk'anatomie)
    The tango workshops will be used to explore body sensations and to work on the finesse and precision of the connection
     
  • Koen: dances from the South West & Centre France, improvisations, musicality & rhythmic variations in couple dances, …
    Koen will teach some traditional dances to choose from: rondeaux, congos, bourrées, sauts béarnais, branle béarnais, fandango, arin arin …

A part of the programme will be fixed on the spot according to the proposals, preferences and/or needs of the participants. Laure and Koen will give individual suggestions and corrections, so that everyone progresses.
 


Other activities
  • Bal open for external dansers. Reservation necessary.
  • Practica – a folk ball with recorded music – on most of the other evenings
  • Relaxation, siesta, walks, games, swimming in a lake 15 minutes away…

Taal

Afhankelijk van de deelnemers zal de cursus in het Frans OF het Engels worden gegeven, met indien nodig beknopte vertalingen in de andere taal. Koen en Laure zijn vlot meertalig, dus de individuele correcties krijg je zeker in de taal van jouw keuze.

NIVEAU

Stage voor gevorderde folkdansers.
Deze stage is toegankelijk voor deelnemers van de 2 voorgaande stages met Koen & Laure, en voor gevorderde folkdansers die al een kleine basis van tango hebben (je moet minimum enkele uren initiatie gevolgd hebben). De danshouding van folkdansen moet een evidentie zijn. Je moet de basis van de mazurka, scottish en wals vlot beheersen, vertrouwd zijn met improviseren en met leiden en/of volgen, en liefst ook openstaan om van rol te wisselen. 

We gaan ervan uit dat je minstens 2 jaar intensieve danservaring -met lessen en stages- nodig hebt om dit niveau te bereiken. Die ervaring kan je eventueel deels opgedaan hebben in andere koppeldansen (tango, salsa, forró, … ). 

Als je nog nooit stage gevolgd hebt met Koen of Laure, contacteer ons dan zodat we samen je niveau kunnen evalueren. Om het gevorderde niveau van deze stage te kunnen garanderen voor alle deelnemers, behouden de organisatoren zich het recht voor om kandidaten te weigeren op basis van hun dansniveau en/of leersnelheid.

Er is een opfriscursus op dinsdag 18 juli van 14u tot 16u, verplicht voor wie nog nooit een intensieve stage bij ons gevolgd heeft, en warm aanbevolen voor de andere deelnemers die de materie van de vorige stages niet onderhouden hebben

 

Danspartner

Je moet je niet samen met een danspartner inschrijven voor deze stage. Er wordt regelmatig van partner gewisseld. Je kan dus alleen inschrijven, per twee, met vrienden…
