Contemporary with Zoe Camilleri

9th-13th December

10:00-11:15

ŻfinMalta Studios

Join Zoe Camilleri for an intensive week of company open classes designed to progressively build in energy, rhythm, and complexity, offering a dive into certain dynamics of movement. We will explore the idea of controlling time through our bodies, using concepts of inertia, suspension, and acceleration, to hone the physical qualities needed to land sharp accents while maintaining fluidity and softness in transitions. Through a mixture of improvisation and structured phrases, we aim to develop both strength and ease in movement. Expect an environment that encourages discovery and the freedom to explore and challenge your own movement vocabulary.
