Yoga on the Stage: Theatre of the Self

Thursday 22.1. at 18-20, Valvesali, Cultural Centre Valve, 1 floor

Price: 25e / 20e JoJo members

”I warmly invite you to join my yoga class — a unique practice taking place in an unusual and inspiring space.” -Nina

We will move and breathe inside a black box theatre, surrounded by professional performative lighting that creates a deep, atmospheric environment. This setting allows us to explore the body and inner experience in a new way, where movement becomes a form of self-expression.

The class is based on the principles of Balance Yoga, with a strong focus on: 
biomechanics of movement,
safe and intelligent load compensation,
strengthening the muscles that stabilize the spine and core,
developing mobility and stability of the hip joints.

This technical foundation helps prevent injuries while adding clarity, awareness, and precision to the body.

During the practice, we will twist and balance, hold and flow, squeeze and stretch, relax and activate. The class unfolds as a continuous dialogue between effort and ease, strength and softness. In this immersive space, you are invited to uncover a deeper layer of your practice — moving in the darkness, flowing where light meets silence. The class is suitable for all levels.

Ethno Contemporary Technique

Friday 23.1. at 16-20 (including a 30 min break) Valvesali, Cultural Centre Valve, 1 floor

Price: 40e / 30e JoJo members

Ethno contemporary technique is a unique blend of contemporary dance and folk dance principles. It includes body percussion, the use of voice, grounded and rhythmic movement patterns rooted in tradition.

Another part of the workshop is dedicated to isolation and fine movement technique, including waves through different parts of the body at various speeds, coordination between body segments, waves with resistance, working with weight and support through different points of contact with the floor and various port de bras and detailed hand movement techniques.

This workshop develops body awareness, expressiveness, musicality, and a deeper connection between movement and inner impulse.

What to bring with you:

  • Long pants or leggings, T-shirt, long-sleeve top or hoodie, socks, knee pads.
  • I look forward to moving, exploring, and creating together.

 

See you in class! -Nina
