Community Project

Dancers

Portugal

The Community Project is an embryonic project, which aims to involve students in a teaching model different from urban dances (Hip Hop, StreetJazz, LAB), in order to promote shows, participation in competitions, workshops with invited teachers and exchange of experiences among students, often limited to their schools.

It is born from the cooperation and motivation between two Urban Dance teachers, Stéphanie Vieira and Marcelo M. Silva, with different initial training, the first having started their training in Classical, Contemporary and Jazz Dance and the last in Street Dances / Hip Hop.

Understanding the singularities and strengths of each aspect, this symbiosis arises from the adaptation of the various techniques inherent to each modality, becoming a unique teaching model that aims at the evolution and training of versatile students.

Essentially concerned with the gradual evolution of students as a group, the main principle is the preservation of the physical condition of each student, as well as an adaptation of learning and evolution according to the individual characteristics of each one, respecting their time but, above all, getting the best out of each one.
