How can movements be generated through inspiring content? What are scores and how is a dance rhythm generated? The explore dance choreographers develop accompanying material for their pieces in the form of instructions for you to try out at home. Learn to experiment with choreographic tools and experience in a playful way what it is like to work artistically with the medium of dance. Where does simple movement end and where does dance begin? - Try it out! And if you don't want to practice alone, make a digital appointment with your friends, send each other your results and afterwards exchange ideas and creative individual implementation in a video conference.
The tasks are also aimed at parents and teachers who would like to bring some movement into the everyday life of the family or into digital lessons.
