Intensive workshops

La Bayadère Variation (on pointe):

April 28th in Saint-Lambert

If you like dancing and go further in your practice, the intensives are perfect for you! We take a technical aspect head-on and refine it. In this variation workshop, we learn a choreographic sequence from the repertoire (Don Quixote, Coppélia, Swan Lake…). Whether you want to dance on pointe or in ballet shoes, we aim for an intermediate level. You must therefore have a minimum of one year of pointe classes under your belt to tackle it. Otherwise, join us in demi-pointes or socks!

Please note: This workshop, if danced on pointe, is not appropriate for beginners. Our instructor will be able to advise you on this, and will ask you to get off pointe if she  is concerned with your safety.

Equipment required: ballet outfit that allows the instructor to see the movements (shirt and tights recommended), hair elastic and water bottle, ballet shoes or pointe shoes if you feel like it (and have experience)!

  • From 1PM-4Pm (3 hours)

  • Saint-Lambert studio (10-minute bus ride from the Longueuil metro station).

  • Adults and 16+ welcome!

Turns and Jumps: next dates to be announced!

If you like dancing and go further in your practice, the intensives are perfect for you! We take a technical aspect head on and refine it in clinical mode. Whether you’ve never done tricks or jumps, or you need a helping hand to improve them and go for triple pirouettes, this workshop is tailor-made for each participant according to their needs. We will analyze your initial situation, give you the required corrections and offer you several exercises and challenges to continue to progress even after the workshop.
Attention, si tu souffres de vertiges ou d’étourdissements ou encore si tu as des blessures qui t’empêchent de sauter, ce n’est pas l’atelier pour toi!
Matériel requis: tenue de ballet qui permet à l’instructrice de voir les mouvements (maillot et collant recommandés), élastique à cheveux et bouteille d’eau.
  • From 2pm to 5PM (3h)

  • Verdun studio

  • Adults and kids from 12 years old welcome!

What’s in this workshop?

Always thought you weren’t flexible? Camille too. After having always lived in the body of a 2×4, Camille started a few years ago her road to flexibility. She got her split for the first time at age 30, so there’s hope!

Without being able to claim the title of contortionist at Cirque du Soleil, there is a way to improve the flexibility of just about everyone. We can *almost* guarantee that you will see mega improvement in five days with our safe yet intensive method. Please note that this workshop is not for people who are pregnant, deconditioned or in rehabilitation. It will be demanding, but the light will finally shine at the end of the tunnel of your flexibility!

  • 15h intensive workshop
  • initial flexibility assessment
  • warm-up exercises
  • flexibility work
  • work-at-home routine to maintain gains
  • advice from real experiences

FAQ

It’s the perfect workshop for you, no matter how flexible you are (well, aside from contortionists, maybe).

You must have a level of physical conditioning suitable for an intensive workshop (3 hours a day for 5 days), including cardio, muscular and flexibility components.

Miracle formulas are not our thing, so we can’t guarantee that everyone will suddenly become very flexible. Instead, we offer you a working method, an easy routine to reproduce at home and support during the first five days so that you achieve the maximum gain in flexibility. You will then have to deal with age, anatomy, genetic factors and several other determinants, but it is almost certain that you will see an improvement.

We suggest a comfortable outfit, ballet slippers or training socks, a reusable water bottle, a pencil.

The workshop cannot be refunded, but it can be exchanged until it begins.
