The workshop offers a detailed and intense insight into the principles of the Anchor Technique. Its main aim focuses on helping the dancers to develop the ability to dynamically anchor different parts of the body to floor or space to facilitate freedom of movement and flow, with an emphasis on creating multiple origins of movement within the body. We divide the classes into different blocks that gradually develop awareness of body, movement and space. From the beginning we focus on bringing the body into movement and finding continuity and agility in it. By incorporating Floorwork into the class, we want to develop the ability to merge with the floor and use it to create movement. Moving into vertical positions, we gradually build up technically demanding and dynamic movement material characterized by such features as asymmetrical impulses, oppositional forces, rotations, suspensions, falls, and rotations. This is done with in-depth movement analysis.
