Public Moves: A Playful Body with a Curious Mind
with Thales Weilinger

Wed 30.07., 18.45h l MQ Forecourt l Free entry

Thales' class is based on the concept of moving arts: the body is explored in its virtuosity, thereby creating a visual language. Through simple exercises and movement sequences, the participants find creative approaches that produce individual forms of interpretation and lead to better communication with the environment. The realisation of movement is a highly personal and an intimate approach, with which each person creates their own universe.

Public Moves dance classes take place outdoors every day – international and local instructors share their knowledge of everything from jazz and Bollywood dance to waacking in free outdoor classes. No previous experience is necessary, and all ages and levels are welcome!

Registration begins one day before the course starts at 11:00 a.m. via the calendar or by telephone on +43.1.523 55 58-19. If a class is ‘fully booked’, there is still the possibility of securing a remaining place on site. It's worth dropping by!
