Description

IŻFEN ma’ ŻfinMalta - Dance with us!

March 2023 Groovy Special 


Get your March moving with ŻfinMalta - no previous dance experience required!  

Held on Monday and Tuesday evenings at 18:30 in March 2023, these fun and accessible classes address our fundamental human need to move.  


March Mondays:  

IŻFEN ma’ ŻfinMalta offers open ballet classes where participants are guided through the basics to develop skills, strength, confidence and creativity. Classes are led by ŻfinMalta’s Education & Outreach Artist, Martina Zammit. Bookings are to be made online in advance.  

 

ABOUT MARTINA  

Education & Outreach Artist Martina was born in Malta in 1987. She first danced with the Olivia Dow School of Russian Ballet in Malta, where she studied the Legat System. Martina completed three degrees at the University of Malta, beginning with a Bachelor degree in English and Archaeology, and followed by a Masters in English, Modern and Contemporary Literature and Criticism. She then undertook a Bachelor of Dance Studies, which is where she was introduced to contemporary dance. Martina joined ŻfinMalta as a company dancer in 2014, and since 2018 has been making the transition to the role of Education & Outreach Artist. 

 

March Tuesdays: 

We Love to Move, We Love to Groove 

‘We Love to Move, We Love to Groove’ is Florinda Camilleri’s invitation to enter an affirmative, enthusiastic, and response-able space for collective moving and grooving in ŻfinMalta Studios. It is for all who wish to discover and develop their dancing skills and vocabularies. It is for all who wish to deepen and widen relationships within and across bodies. It is for all who wish to practice bodily openness, awareness, and care. And it is for all who simply wish to explore the joy of dancing with others, in a brave and curious space. 

For each session, you will be guided by a sequence of movement prompts (the move) and dynamic soundtrack (the groove). Some elements will be prepared beforehand and some will respond to unfoldings in real time. This semi-structured approach allows space for you to actively participate in the creation and development of this hosted dance space, also practicing how to show up in other spaces.  

Bring along some comfortable clothes and warm socks, some water and a towel. Expect to sweat, to laugh, to be challenged, to learn. It may be complicated. It will be fun. 

 

Bookings are to be made by contacting Florinda Camilleri at: florindacamilleri@gmail.com 

 

ABOUT FLORINDA 

Florinda is an independent dance artist and community pharmacist from and based in Malta. She initiates, leads, and supports performing arts projects in Malta and internationally, taking on various roles as a contemporary dance and screendance performer, maker, collaborator, researcher, educator, coach, producer, and facilitator. Florinda recently graduated from the Master Performing Public Space program in Fontys University, (NL). Her research project applied a lens of feminist posthumanism with-in public spaces in Malta, exploring embodied perspectives of (land)scapes through site-specific screendance performance with the aim of discovering new, more responsive and response-able ways of engaging with environments. She is currently investigating points of encounter between human and more-than-human agents within urban public spaces as sites of creative potential from which movement and matter are formed. 

 

Classes are open to participants over 18 years of age who are open to exploring the idea of movement from scratch. Individuals from all backgrounds and all levels of fitness and flexibility are invited to participate. No previous experience of dance is expected.     

This is an ideal opportunity for those ready to make the leap into the dance world. Start the week fresh with ŻfinMalta and make dance a part of your Monday and Tuesday evening wind-down routine.
