Robert Zumba Dancefloor

Oriental Fusion Team želi dobrodošlicu zumba fitness treneru koji će začiniti festival jednim zumba orientalom u svom prepoznatljivom veselom stilu. Robert Zumba Dancefloor, dobrodošao!

U svijet Zumba® Fitnessa ušao sam prije pet godina, a od 2013. godine i kao licencirani instruktor. Već nakon prvog treninga zaljubio sam se u Zumba® Fitness jer spaja ono što najviše volim: fitnes i ples! Često se misli da je Zumba® vrsta plesa, ali nije. Zumba® Fitness kombinira različite plesne stilove, prije svega latinoameričke. Osnovu Zumba® Fitnessa čine salsa, merengue, reggaeton i cumbia, ali Zumba® uključuje i puno ostalih plesova poput hiphopa, soce, tanga …. Zumba® je za sve, bez obzira na dob, spol i plesno iskustvo – zato je i tako omiljena.

Od 2013. završio sam i nekoliko specijalizacija Zumba® Fitnessa: Zumba®Toning, Zumba® Pro Skills, Zumba® Basic 2 i Zumba® Kids i Zumba® Kids Jr. Redovito sudjelujem na stručnim usavršavanjima (Choreo Jam Session) u Hrvatskoj i izvan Hrvatske.

In the world of Zumba® Fitness I entered five years ago and in 2013. I become a licenced instructor. After the first class I fell in love with Zumba® Fitness because it combines what I love the most: fitness and dance! It is often thought that zumba is a dance style, but it’s not. It combines variety of dance styles, especially Latin American. Basics of Zumba® Fitness are merenque, reggateon and cumbia, but also hip hop, soca, tango. Zumba is for all, regardless of the age, sex or dance experience and therefore such popular.

Since 2013. I completed several specializations such as: Zumba® Fitness: Zumba®Toning, Zumba® Pro Skills, Zumba® Basic 2 and Zumba® and Zumba® Kids Kids Jr. I regularly participate in professional training in Croatia and abroad.

Amani Oriental

Oriental Fusion Team pozdravlja Amani grupu i školu koja sa svojom voditeljicom gradi svoj poseban plesni stil, prepoznatljiv publici širom regije. Dobrodošle i donesite svoj plesni duh na našu scenu!

Amani je mlada škola, ali je njen osnivač i instruktor, Aleksandra Kondić iliti Amani Oriental, već godinama poznata publici širom regiona. U njenoj plesnom opusu se nalaze brojni plesni stilovi i rekviziti koji su retko viđeni na scenama širom Srbije, a svoje znanje, iskustva i savete plesačima velikodušno nudi na svojoj stranici na facebook-u Skola orijentalnog plesa i Arapskog folklora Amani. Takođe, njen pionirski poduhvat proučavanja manje poznatih stilova Istoka je svojevremeno izgradio njen stil plesa. Aleksandra pokušava da održi tradicionalniji stil što klasičnog orijentalnog plesa, što folklornih stilova. Manje poznati stilovi koje za sada jedino Aleksandra izvodi u Srbiji su, ples sa shamadanom ( svecanjak sa vatrom), turkish roman havasi, Iranian bandari, avganistanski logari, klasican persijski, poi voi velovi i mnogi drugi. Pored svetski poznatih instruktora, Aleksandra najviše uživa da uči u Egiptu od lokalaca koji nemaju veze sa plesnim svetom, jer tako može da prenese duh Egipta na scenu. Poznati instruktori sa kojima je radila su Leila Molaei (Ir/UK), Simona Jović (Srb/Fra), Katherina Shereen (Cz), Mateja Mikulan (Slo), Jamila (Pl), Aziza (Ca) i mnogi drugi.


Amani is a young school, but their teacher Aleksandra Kondic aka Aleksandra Amani is well know to the people all over the region. In her dance CV you can find alot of different styles of dance, all kind of props, which are rarely seen in the Serbia, and her advices and history about dance, which she selfless is sharing, you can find on her facebook page: ” Skola orijentalnog plesa i Arapskog folklor Amani- Oriental dance and Arabic folk dance studio Amani.” Althought her desire to learn alot of folk dances from East, made her style quit unqiue. Aleksandra is trying to represent as much as native as it is possible, the dance she perfrom. Less known dances she is performing are Raqs Shamadan ( candelabra dance), Turkish Roman Havasi, Iranian Bandari, Afghani logari, Classical Persian dance, Poi Voi veils and many more. Beside world know dancers, Aleksandra enjoys to study in Egypt with natives, who doesnt have any connection to the dance world because only like that she can bring spirit of Egypt on the sceene. Well known teachers from whom she was studing are Leila Molaei ( Ir/Uk) Simona Jovic ( Srb/Fra) Katherina Shereen ( Cz) Mateja Mikulan (Slo) Jamila ( Pl) Aziza ( Ca) Nika Mlakar (Slo) and many more.

Victoria Kozubova

Oriental Fusion Team želi toplu dobrodošlicu ruskoj umjetnici i plesačici Victoriji koja je plesno iskustvo pretočila u životni projekt “Healing dance”…dobro nam došla!

Metodologiju kulture pokreta svladavala sam na Drzavnom univerzitetu Sporta u Moskvi. Unutarnji sadrzaj pokreta, ritma i zvuka prenosili su mi izvorni majstori iz Indije, Andalusije, Brazila i Afrike.

Skupljeno znanje i dugogodisnje plesno iskustvo pretvorila sam u projekt svog zivota – Healing Dance program.

Orijentalni, brazilski, afro ritmovi sluze nam kao poveznica  s tijelom, emocijama te dubljim dimenzijama osobnosti. Kroz vjezbe i ples rješavamo se prepreka na putu prema miru, sreci i stabilnosti u zivotu.

Organizirala sam kreativne radionice za prevenciju devijacije nepunoljetnih, za rehabilitaciju zatvorenika, za poboljsanje radne efikasnosti drzavnih sluzbenika te opcenito promicanje zdravlja stanovnistva u Rusije, Bugarskoj i Hrvatskoj.

Svaku vještinu i znanje smatram načinom na koji poboljšavam vlastiti zivot i zivote mojih dragih vjezbacica.


Victoria Kozubova is yoga, pilates and fitness instructor.

I’ve learned about methodology of exercising at the State University of Sports in Moscow.  I was initiated to ancient knowledge of rhythm, sound and movement by masters from India, Andalusia, Brazil and Africa.

As a result of my long-term experience arised my life project – Healing Dance Program. The oriental, afro, brazilian steps are our connection with body, mind and emotions  and deeper aspects of the personality. Exercising is my way to remove obstacles toward peace, happiness and stability. I had organized a lot of workshops for prevention of juvenile delinquency, for rehabilitation of prisoners, for stress management in governmental structures in Russia, Bulgaria and Croatia.

Every skill and knowledge I use to make our life better.

 

 

Sarasvati Tribe

Velika dobrodošlica Sarasvati tribe skupini i djevojkama koje su ljubav prema ATS stilu pretočile u svoju plesnu obitelj specifičnog plesnog vokabulara! 

Sarasvati tribeSarasvati, hinduistička božica znanja, glazbe i umjetnosti, pod svoje okrilje stavila je šest plesačica sa dugogodišnjim zajedničkim plesnim iskustvom i stvorila plesnu obitelj koja od 2015. godine pleše pod imenom Sarasvati tribe.

Ljubav prema glazbi, plesu i umjetnosti ispreplela je životne putove ovih plesačica i utkala ih u veliku zajednicu ATS® plesnog stila.

ATS® (American Tribal Style®) nastao je u Americi 80-ih godina prošlog stoljeća. Njegova kreatorica, Carolena Nericcio Bohlman i danas je aktivna na plesnoj sceni i u plesnoj zajednici koja broji preko tisuću plesačica i plesača te preko 140 sestrinskih studija diljem svijeta.

ATS® je je moderan stil trbušnog plesa jasno definiran  s primarnim obilježjem  grupne improvizacije, specifičnog plesnog vokabulara i kostima te određenim smjernicama za vođenje i praćenje. Nastao je iz plemesnkih plesova sjeverne Afrike, indijskih folklornih plesova te španjolskog Flamenca.  Upravo zbog naglaska na imporvizaciji u ovom plesnom stilu, potrebna je velika doza povjerenja među plesačicama koje se stvara kroz samokontrolu i preciznost u izvedbi znakova i pokreta.  American tribal style®je plesni jezik koji omogućava da u bilo kojem trenutku možemo kroz ples komunicirati s plesačicom ili više njih koje možda susrećemo po prvi put.

Upravo navedena plesna kohezija povezala je članice plesne skupine Sarasvati Tribe i učinila da njihovo malo pleme postane obitelj glazbe i plesa u plesnom studiju Alapadma. Sarasvati tribe čine Suzana Bedić, Maja Grdić Jarak, Ivana Hećimović Duvnjak, Maja Tutavac, Silvija Matić i Petra Volarević.


Sarasvati, the Hindu goddess of knowledge, music and arts, has taken under her protection six
dancers who have been dancing together for many a year, and thus, in 2015, created a dance
family called Saraswati tribe. Lives of these dancers were interlaced by their love of music,
dance and arts, and together they form a part of the large community of the ATS dance style.
ATS® (American Tribal Style®) was created in America in 1980s. Its creator Carolena
Nericcio Bohlman is still active on the dance scene and in the community of over a thousand
dancers from more than 140 associated dance studios worldwide. This dance cohesion
brought together members of the Saraswati Tribe and turned their little pack into a family of
dance and music in the Alapadma dance studio. Members of the Sarasvati tribe are Suzana
Bedić, Maja Grdić Jarak, Iva Hećimović Duvnjak, Maja Tutavac, Silvija Martić and Petra
Volarević.
