Film - Senna


Film - Senna
Dir: Asif Kapadia; UK, 2010, 105 mins, Cert: 12A

The precocious, handsome, religious and thoughtful Brazilian Ayrton Senna was one of boldest and most exciting race car champions of all time. He was also the last Formula One driver to be killed on the track, in 1994 at age 34, and his dramatic life story merits the attention it receives in this unexpected and very good documentary.

Presented in association with Access Cinema.

The class is rooted in the release technique practice allowing for general development, clear references are made to traditional contemporary styles and The classes also focuses on the use of body learning approaches found in the Alexander technique. Kineseology as well as performance information are integrated into the dance practice. Occasionally guest teachers will give classes in different styles.

Janyce Michellod will be giving MORNING CLASS December 11-15 as a guest teacher. We are very excited to invite back this Daghdha Mentoring Programme alumnus to teach and hope you all can attend.

Janyce Michellod is concerned with guiding dancers towards a greater awareness of their back as a means to expand one's dynamic qualities. She offers tools that help the dancer expand his physical possibilities , and work on his control, allowing his body greater freedom of movement.
