The Jasmin Vardimon Company Education Programme provides an insight into Vardimon’s choreographic and artistic process and aims to develop participants dance and theatre skills. The programme offers workshops, master-classes, residencies and printed resource materials.
Workshops can be based purely on physical skills and repertoire, or can also include explorations of socially relevant issues such as bullying and terminal illness. The ‘Vardimon’ style inevitably works with the themes that dominate JVC’s work – observations of human behavior and contemporary social issues.
Participants will have the opportunity to experience Jasmin Vardimon’s methodology first hand by working directly with Jasmin Vardimon Company members.
There are two main workshop options:
I) Repertoire Workshop
Consists of a contemporary technique class, repertoire and a creative session exploring Vardimon’s unique approach to creating work. Workshops are offered at all levels of ability from beginner to advanced level and can be tailored to meet specific needs. Workshops are recommended from ages 9+.
II) Choreographic Workshop
Aimed at meeting the requirements of both the BTEC Physical Theatre unit and the A-level group choreography unit, these workshops focus on developing contact improvisation skills and creating original movement material from a given stimulus. These workshops can also be adapted to suit other groups e.g. undergraduate dance/physical theatre students.
