Movelab - Creative Movement Courses kick off on Sept 15 at Ductac
- Written by Editor

Movelab
Founded in October 2013 and following a successful first season, Movelab is starting the new school year on September 15, 2014. These Creative Movement courses are unique in the UAE. MOVELAB is Dubai’s first Dance Centre focusing on Creative Dance Education, a dance opportunity for EVERYONE to explore the power of creative movement. What makes MOVELAB unique is the conceptual approach to dance rather than an imitating approach. Students are encouraged to investigate fundamental dance concepts such as body, space and time.
With MOVELAB students develop movement skills that promote both creative and analytic potential. The activities foster a non-competitive, individual, cooperative and enjoyable environment of physical challenge. Whether for a kid or an adult, a complete beginner or a professional performer, MOVELAB has a suitable Dance Education for everyone.
Special attention is given to coordination, alignment, balance, strength, flexibility and good posture. Creative Movement is an introduction and complementation to any type of dance, sport and art form.
Students attending the course will strengthen confidence, develop self-discipline, cooperative behavior, attention span and positive emotions. And most of all, students get the chance to invent, learn and perform their own dances to their favorite music in ‘in studio’ shows!
A unique and fabulous course that combines physical exercice, creativeness and self-confidence development.
Monica Antezana, founder and director of MOVELAB, says: “I firmly believe that creativity is at the centre of human intelligence. I’ve seen time and again through my education and experience in the field of movement that it is possible to develop your creativity via your own movement. Hence, develop your intelligence via your own dance. And it is 100% worth it! I have created MOVELAB based on this principle. I look forward to sharing my passion for creative movement with you.”
