FOR EVERY PERSON WITH DESIRE TO TRY

Purpose:

The Dance Visual Classes held by Body Expressive Leuven aim to create a visual outcome as a video, or performance in a city theater, cultural center or a beautiful location. We are working on an entire show/act, from story-telling, energy, and emotionality to a choreography. 

Mainly, we want each show to be a special experience for our dance students. We want to take you on a journey to discover different parts of reality, see life from different perspectives, and explore yourself while creating and embracing music. 

Who can join? 

Everyone who would like to try, regardless of their previous experience. We believe we can guide everyone to find pleasure in performing. You can be shy or scared, new to this type of activity, or have lots of stage records. We are constructing shows that are layered and everyone will find their place.

ALPHA ACT ANTWERPEN

STATUS: OPEN for the 2024 performance

ALPHA ACT is about the female experience is unique, yet universal. Nurturing, yet full of rage. Confined to a strict set of rules and expectations, yet free and non-conforming. The Alpha Act was born out of a desire to paint a picture of the woman in our society. To achieve this, our teachers have put together a series of choreographies that blend into a cohesive story – our story. From a protector, to a temptress, to an innocent creature and a being full of rage, Alpha Act promises to walk everyone through the maze that is the mind and the body of a woman, in all of its shapes, sizes or forms.

ALPHA ACT is not only a show, but a social statement. Performing it in a beautiful city of Antwerpen was an act of voicing our feelings within the society and sharing the experience.  THE VIDEO  BELOW

ALPHA ACT DANSVLOER

ALPHA ACT which portrays a full dimension of the female experience is an emotional, non-stereotypical act of expression in which students’ feelings are channeled and shaped into creation. The dance performance in the Stadsschouwburg Leuven was a part of an amazing local Dansvloer festival that brought together different dance groups and dance schools. It gave our students an opportunity to show “Expression-focused” way to dance and build a stage experience.

FAQs

Here are some frequently asked questions.

Can I join if I am shy or/and I don’t have experience?

Yes, and you certainly should. Half of our students that you see in our Dance Visuals came here with the same question and with fear of being “too shy”, “too inexperience” or simply “incapable”. This is normal to feel it. But we are using a special method of teaching called “Body Expressive Method”, in which we focus on reducing psychological barriers, show how to use emotions and expression in dance and thanks to that we believe we can make everyone thrive. It is on our team to guide you and make you feel great, so you do not have to worry, as it is not your responsibility to “be enough” but ours to get you there. 

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT OPTIONS TO JOIN?

You can join the FULL SHOW run as a core-viusal member by subscribing to a yearly Visual Package (356 Euro a year and 276 Euro for students). The plus of this membership is more economical price, and you are the first in line for all locations performances in which our space limited (in line to the enrollment/payment date).

You can join FULL SHOW quarterly membership, which means you will be enrolling to quarters, each 3 months. (95 Euro a quarter and 85 Euro for students.) 

You can join MINI SHOW run, which is joining one additional choreography built especially for busy people that can not commit to more. (65 Euro per quarter and 230 Euro annually). 



HOW THE REHEARSALS AND PREPARATION WORK?

We are organizing a flexible way to rehearse, to be sure we can accommodate all ages, professions and people that have different learning schemes. We understand that people are busy with their duties and want to be sure that you are not excluded because of it. 

The show practices are on Mondays 20.00 – 21.00, each second day of the week. There are additional weekend rehearsals held in Autumn prior to shows (several of them, so you have a choice). You can skip some of the rehearsals as long as you practice home from provided “home-schooling” material. You can also choose the amount of choreographies that you take on board. 


THE PERSPECTIVE

Our main purpose of VISUALS is to create an experience and expression of a theme or a topic we portray. The authentic emotionality and presence of personalities of our students matter to us more than “traditional” performative “look for clean choreography”. Of course, we strive for the greatest performance possible, but our creations are evocative. They intend to communicate deep emotion to the public and ourselves and become a space that allows for self-connection and liberty. We look at dance and visuals from a different, non-classical perspective and hope to give this clear energy to the outside world. Therefore, whatever experience you had or imagined having before – let us surprise you.
