TEACHER

 

She has created her method of teaching she calls "egoless dance".
The method invites dancer to look at their body as a partner with its own bodymind, rights and uniqueness. The dancer stops simply "using" the body, but builds a harmonious relationship with it to solve creative tasks together. This approach develops a sense of presence in the body, changes the quality of attention, and therefore the quality of movement. Dancers receive an unlimited resource for improvisation; they freely read information about body language of other person and quickly build a dance dialogue

 

Inna has been a teacher of contemporary dance technique, improvisation and composition for children and adults during the festivals and educational programs in Belarus, Poland, Moldova, France, Russia, Ukraine, Sweden and Germany.
