BE CREATIVE, BE YOURSELF! – Creative Dance Workshop with Ilijana Lončar (ages 8–12)
What stories can our bodies tell through movement? What does dance look like when we listen to our imagination, explore new possibilities, and dare to be ourselves?
We invite children aged 8–12 to a creative dance workshop led by Ilijana Lončar, a renowned dance artist, educator, and choreographer. The workshop will offer a space to explore movement, nurture imagination, and express themselves freely through dance.
Through play, improvisation, and dynamic dance activities, children will explore the possibilities of their own bodies, develop coordination, and become more aware of movement and emotions. They will also discover how individual ideas can come together to create a shared dance story. We will learn to listen to one another, embrace our differences, and create without fear of making mistakes, because in creative dance, the most important things are to explore, create, and be yourself!

-
Creative dance games and movement exploration
