Viviana allows this young audience to familiarise itself with the Eastern discipline in a fun atmosphere that is adapted to children, all the while emphasising body positions, balance, grounding, and the importance of listening to rhythm, being aware of oneself and of the space around you.
This class makes full use of accessories and props: headscarves, scarves, small sticks and so forth. This rounds out the basic programme with a view to developing the children’s coordination on the one hand, and encouraging spontaneous and creative movements on the other.
Viviana is trained in many styles of dance and is of Italian-Swiss origin. Having always been passionate about Eastern dance and melodies, she began training in 1985 with renowned artists, principally of Egyptian and Moroccan origin, before developing her own style.

Flamenco is a very structured art form that involves footwork, arm movements and synchronisation.

These drums are made of cow skin and heavy, hard carved wood. They’re played with thick sticks and the impact is impressive.

Peruvian dance is the result of several vibrant cultural encounters; Incan, Spanish and African traditions have all combined and this melange has ripened over the centuries.

These group lessons are for instrumentalists who have a good knowledge of their instrument. The work will be done mainly by ear, but scores will be made available if needed.
