Ilka Bardóczy 'Motion and emotion'
The workshop starts with a playful warm up to make ready both our bodies and minds.
Then we stretch and I show you a few releasing practices and some hardcore
pole power training-moves to have an active flexibility.
In the main part of the WS we go through some of my favorite tricks and combinations which are all about power and flexibility on the pole. I will also give you some exercises on the floor.
The WS includes double-tricks!
We conclude with a relaxed stretching so you can leave the class with a tired body but with a fresh mind (and with some new movements in your repertoire). All levels are welcome!
