Join us for a dance workshop where contemporary and street dance meet. The workshop is open to all levels, and will be based on the material of Manifestus by Jacopo Jenna, which is the opening piece of STHLM DANS.
Manifestus is a choreography for a group of three dancers: an abstract form of representation, through codes and non-narrative references of some street dance practices, defining a complex energetic space in constant change to manifest itself, dancing in the flow of the present.
With Jacopo Jenna, Simone De Giovanni, Petra Audrey Mangoua Youaleu and Phex.

Jacopo Jenna is a choreographer and director creating stage works, video pieces and installations. His work explores choreography as an extended practice, through research that involves dance and video, studying new possibilities for embodying movement, passing through various languages and generating multiple performative contexts. Often audiovisual arts and movement are in dialogue, creating a performative act. As a graduate of Sociology at the University of Urbino Italy, he also studied dance in Codarts (Rotterdam Dance Academy). He creates training and educational programmes for various age groups experimenting with new ways of relating to performance art.
