The class is based on release technique and aims at training dancers to observe, analyse and increase their attentiveness to the body in movement. One objective is to give dancers the possibility to find freedom within form, working with minimal effort and maximum outcome, finding the edge of control. Through a variety of warm-up exercises, improvisation and phrase work, students work on continuous physical awareness. Anne-Linn Akselsen’s background includes studies at P.A.R.T. S in Belgium and she has broad experience as an educator in Norway and abroad.
