School of Performing Arts
The aim of the School of Performing Arts is to offer a learning space where one can imagine, experiment, learn, and create.
Theatre
Acting, playing at being someone else, interpreting stories and imaginary characters.
The practice of improvisation, dialogue, and scene creation.
Working on expressiveness, listening, observation, and teamwork.
Developing imagination and creativity, exercising communication skills, as well as the ability to analyze actions and the message we want to convey.
Learning to speak in public, to become uninhibited, and to express oneself fluently using words as a score and the body as an instrument.
Body Expression
The objective of this activity is to offer an open space for play. We propose warm-up, perception and observation games, and psychomotor activities. Through these playful exercises, children become aware of their own bodies, of themselves, and of their imagination.
A learning process that promotes creativity, expression, and interaction with others, fostering the integration of the student and the class group.
Dance
Introduction to Dance
Through different musical styles, we work on varied dynamics and qualities of movement. The aim of this activity is to control motor skills such as balance, coordination, and body awareness. Putting dance technique at the service of expression, to freely enjoy all the artistic potential through movement and dance.
Classical Dance
Classical dance involves practising certain postures, technical perfection and elasticity, alignment, postural correction, and awareness and perception of one’s own movements.
It works on precision, timing, tempo, rigour, and discipline within the choreography. It develops body awareness, coordination, concentration, and psychomotor skills.
Contemporary Dance
This discipline focuses on improvisation, exploration, and investigation of one’s own movement abilities. It’s a learning process that promotes the student’s creativity and expression, deepening in listening and rhythm acquisition. Additionally, it covers the technical basis of dance and choreography..
Urban Dance
Urban dance includes a wide variety of styles: popping, locking, new-style, hip-hop… All these form the basis of the discipline we present in this proposal.
Urban dance conceptualises dancing with everyday gestures. Its practice suggests inventing a modern gesture for a new type of dance.
It promotes coordination, rhythmic perception of movement, awareness of space and one’s own body, as well as memory and choreographic work.
