About Sabina
Sabina Blumauer is a swing and blues dancer and teacher, renowned for her emphasis on good posture, smooth movement, and feeling the music in the body. She started dancing in 2005, when Lindy Hop was very new in Slovenia, and she perfected and shared her knowledge at numerous festivals abroad.
As a co-founder of the Maribor swing society The Swingbrats and a long-time teacher at Studio Dansa, she has played an important role in developing the Slovenian swing and blues dance scene. She currently lives in Berlin and teaches regularly online, where she integrates the principles of good posture and pain-free movement into swing and blues dance as a certified Gokhale Method teacher.
A detailed description of the classes:
Getting the posture right
We’ll begin our day with creative solo blues and jazz dance foundations, exploring the essentials of healthy body alignment and good posture. This will help make our dancing more sustainable for the spine and joints. We’ll learn how to find a good pelvic position, prevent tension in the back, neck, and shoulders, and adapt these principles when dancing with a partner.
Using the floor, exploring the center
Before we build a dance, we need to be stable and grounded! Where is my center when I dance? Does my perception change? How does it feel to move away from and return to the body’s sense of balance and centrality? Being grounded and aware of your center is the foundation for both simple and complex movement. In this session, we’ll explore our relationship with the body, discovering stability, balance, and presence as the roots of expression.
FishTail & Hip movements
In this class, we’ll sweep the floor with a FishTail and get those hips moving! 🙂
We’ll explore what the FishTail is, discover its variations, and learn how to use it in creative ways, while keeping the pelvis and spine aligned in a healthy, grounded way.
Dancing with a Partner (with Miha Žabkar)
This class is designed for partner dancing. We’ll explore the magic of the fishtail in connection with a partner, and movement from different parts of the body to create smooth, balanced motion together. This session will bring together and activate the movements and techniques we’ve learned throughout the day, and take them onto the dance floor into joyful connection.
Musicality and Rhythms
We’ll focus on developing awareness of timing, dynamics, and syncopation, and explore how to translate these musical elements into movement. Whether dancing solo or with a partner, this session will deepen your connection to blues rhythms and music. You will learn how to be more creative and playful in your expression.
Bringing It All Together: The Choreography
We’ll wrap up our time together with the choreography that will help you repeat and memorize the basic postural and movement principles that we embraced during this weekend. You’ll learn how to combine footwork, body movement, posture, and rhythms into sequences that flow naturally and bring joy and fun to your dancing.
