little girls, and little boys even more have heard it all before: |
Lil' champions Early learning, ages 4-5 photos, texts: ambroise perrin, February 2008
translation: aline lemoine |
"be good, pay careful attention if one day, you want to be a champion" |
But Le Carré d'Art it's not the Olympics; no competition, but an initiation with dynamics |
to become awayre of a slow or energetic movement and discover one's body in an artistic environment |
arms wide open, or folded and head down there's no hesitation to walk upside down |
Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, the Nutcracker or Giselle! let's try it all! even better! |
discover, bend and stretch like never before and it suddenly becomes easy to say "more" |
learn the rules to finally taunt them pay attention to others to enjoy freedom with them |
no one is the first, the strongest or the best we're all alchemists of pleasure and rigor - it's a fest |
it's not home, it's not school we can go crazy, it's so cool |
but more seriously, we're here to learn how to dance we can learn and have fun, that's really a great chance |
it's the basis, clearly contemporary but also classic parents expertly love it, they say it's "pedagogic" |
and we definitely love it, we don't want time to go fast because a dance class with Irena, it's really a blast! |
