Technical specifications

Workshops and master classes:

1. Resilience • A resilient floor (a floor that absorbs shocks) to protect from injuries to the joints.
Note: Many floors are not resilient and are dangerous for dancing in bare feet, falling or rolling on the floor. Dance schools are generally equipped with resilient floors.

2. Surface • Floors must be covered with a « Marley » (a floor covering specifically designed for dance) or the equivalent (exercise carpet). Please contact us to check if the floor has the necessary requirements.

3. Adequate space • The studio or room must be sufficiently large for participants to move freely (running, jumping, rolling, etc.) The space must be free of usual furniture (chairs, tables, etc.). At least, the furniture should be placed in order, along the edge of the room, so as to be out of the way and not endanger the participants or impede their movements.

4. Sound • A sound system equipped with a CD player powerful enough to fill the space.

5. Temperature • The space must be adequately heated and ventilated. This aspect is essential to the participants’ good health.

The lectures:

6. If the lecture includes a dance demonstration, the notes referring to the quality of the floor are applicable. Please communicate with us ahead of time in order to validate the space and floor requirements.

7. A microphone is usually necessary, unless the lecture takes place in a standard classroom, and the number of participants is less than 30.
