SHAPES with Kalli

Explore Form, Flow & Fusion Through Movement

OPEN LEVEL

Discover new ways of moving by shaping the body with creativity and precision.

In this workshop, we focus on creating shapes and angles in the body through the concept of Snaking—a movement technique rooted in spirals, curves, and circular pathways. You'll be guided through playful explorations that encourage both structure and freedom in your movement.

We’ll also explore liquid and linear arm patterns, incorporating elements of Waving and Tutting to form abstract waveforms and intricate hand shapes. This fusion approach invites you to experiment, break boundaries, and unlock your personal movement vocabulary.

You’ll Experience …

• Spiral and circular movement through Snaking

• Waving & Tutting-inspired arm and hand patterns

• Tools to create abstract forms and expressive shapes

• A supportive space for creative brainstorming and improvisation

Who Is It For?

This workshop is open to all levels—whether you're a dancer, a mover, or just curious to explore your body in new ways.

ABOUT KALLI:

Kalliopi Tarasidou, also known as Kalli, is a dancer and choreographer from Thessaloniki, Greece, specializing in the style of Waving. She creatively combines Waving with Tutting, lines, and shapes, drawing inspiration from contemporary dance, acrobatics, and street styles like popping and hip hop. Kalli's innovative fusion creates a unique movement language that emphasizes authentic expression without fitting into any specific category.

Her professional journey began in 2013 when she joined the Flying Steps for the "Red Bull Flying Illusion" tour, which toured five years across Europe. Since then, she has collaborated with various companies, including Wangramirez on the piece "YOUME" and Julien Carlier on "Collapse."

Through her art, she hopes to encourage others to be creative, think beyond the usual, and stay true to themselves.
