Point perdu – Victor Launay
Through his work Victor leads us to the discovery of the fundamentals of contemporary dance and floorwork. The warm-up is essentially based on the musculature of the body to apprehend the floorwork with fluidity and rapidity. The rest of the class consists of working on the technical elements and their combination into choreographic phrases, as well as movement in space and energy management, to get the contrast and musicality of the movement and different technical movements on the floor. He also works a lot around duets and how to link different acrobatic lifts with fluidity and quietness and without showing difficulty.
