  • Liberation: we will work with the body and movement, studying our inner dance and begining to express emotions the way we want here and now through our body

  • Work with partners: we will overcome the fear of contact with another person through mastering new ways of communicating without words

  • Internal state: let's learn to look inside ourselves and understand who we are, what we feel and what we really want

Anyone who wants to try something new. But if you are already interested in dance, stage work, or you have a desire to understand more about yourself, then the intensive course is definitely for you. As Maxim himself says, this is a health intensive, which means there are no strict frameworks, everything depends on you.

And if you want to see how the classes are held and what the participants think about them, then watch this video from Gogol School, where Maxim conducted classes in different cities of the world
