Ida & Maxx - Gespenstertheater: Heimsuchung (Masterclass)
At the first Gespenstertheater workshop, we really got spirited away with eerie light play and dancing shadows. The output was screaming for a deepening sequel and here it is!
Together, we will create an otherwordly piece of art involving magical illumination, fascinating floating steps as well as wicked facial expressions and body language. The piece, choreographed to “Vedergällningen” by Garmarna, will be staged in the Gothla showcase.
Do not worry if you have not been part of the original workshop, you will learn all you need in this masterclass. Come to the stage of ghosts, we all float down here, yes we do...

Valenteena Ianni - Echoes from the Dark (Masterclass)
Valenteena will present 6 brand new combinations with a dark gothic touch specifically created for Gothla.UK that will be added to her Karma Echoes collection.
These new Echoes can be used as a tool in choreographies, improvisation or in any way you desire! Valenteena’s Echoes form a vocabulary of combinations each of which has its name, counts and specific technique. They have been reoccurring in her dance style all over the past years... they are Echoes indeed! The goal of Karma Echoes is to provide new inspiration in your dance. Practice and using these combinations over the time will bring cleaning, fluidity and a better sense of musicality in Fusion Bellydance. |

Sophia & Robyn - Blades of The Lamiae
From the darkness of your grave you are drawn forth. The pull to warfare is strong; echoing down the centuries… you want more, you want more, you want more… From your muddy eons-old pit you are summoned to the fight by the Vampiric Queens you swore to serve in life and undeath.
Under the mist-wreathed moon we march once more. |

Ida - What We Dance in the Shadows
Dark times require dark arts. From Fearless Vampire Killers to Santánico Pandemonium: When vampires dance, the spectator's blood rushes to the veins. We move gracefully and hypnotically, but always remain unpredictable and ready to leap like a predator. This short choreography conjures a sinister atmosphere that one cannot escape. Will you come over to the dark side?
