With Étienne Bordeleau and Jan Dutler.
The different figures that will be taught come from classic structures inspired by silent cinema, modern theater and clown. Participants will learn to perform them with the right technique, the right timing, and most importantly, safely and playfully. Each session begins with a warm up and ends with sequences composed of the movements of the day.
Étienne Bordeleau began his career in the performing arts in 2007.
In 2015, he continued his professional development in Montreal at Francine Côté's School of Clown and Comedy.
For Étienne, the art of the circus is a vehicle for learning towards achieving a complete balance between bodily control and psychological freedom.
