HELLO, WELCOME TO MY PERSONAL PAGE.
I AM FRANCO CREN, THE CREATOR OF THE BODYEQUILIBRIUM COURSE AND I AM YOUR DANCE TECNICAL EXERCISES TEACHER. MY LESSONS HAVE BEEN PREPARED AND STUDIED FOR A PUBLIC OVER 30'40 '50' 60. I LIMIT TO TEACHING YOU ONLY THE EXERCISES AND TECHNIQUE, WITHOUT LET YOU PERFORM DANCED EVOLUTIONS.
 

The purpose of dance in this case is not in fact to make us become dancers / dancers, but use all the benefits of this "physical activity" Academic dance is one of the best motor disciplines to sculpt your body harmoniously as it stretches the muscles and firms the skin. It can also be considered an intellectual discipline. It is necessary to memorize the different exercises and their exact execution. Rigor and discipline are other qualities linked to the universe of academic dance. If the EXERCISE is performed in its maximum correctness, even the simplest one can become a real challenge for people who consider themselves to be at an advanced level. My Bodyequilbrium lessons are made of sensations, moments, emotions, looks, concentration and above all corrections. The exercises are made to perform by the students in a personalized way. Based on their skills, trauma or muscular limitations, the exercise must be applied to each one with a personalized dynamism, depth and strength. This particular attention to each individual student by the MAESTRO requires a lot of consultation and the need for time. Even people who have never done dance, who may not even have a talent for fast movement and who do not know how to move to rhythm, can still benefit from dance exercises, which performed slowly, are affordable for anyone. They strengthen the muscles and rebalance the harmony and elegance in posture and movements. Mind, thought, knowledge, awareness .... are a fundamental part of my BODYEQUILIBRIUM lessons. Knowing how to perform the exercises correctly, being aware of which muscles we are using, having total control over when and how to activate or relax them. The basic technique of dance is, which uses free movement to make a path of awareness and inner knowledge.

My lessons are also a "journey" to discover how wonderful we are, both inside and out. It can also be the integration of a path of spiritual or psychological development: aimed at knowing ourselves better, accepting and loving us as we are. A path that helps us to find and recognize some of the tools that many adults over 30/40/50/60 have lost or forgotten, RESOURCES LIKE INTERIOR SKILLS AND SELF-ESTEEM !!

'll tell you something about me,
about my lessons and my way of teaching.

PERSEVERANCE.
It means in Catholic moral theology; Virtue that commits the man/woman to fight for the achievement of good without succumbing to obstacles and without being overcome by fatigue and discouragement. If you start practicing with CONSTANCE and PERSEVERANCE the specific exercises that I teach you in my lessons to strengthen and extend, you will arrive always to a GREAT RESULT. Working the right muscles and acting on the right joints, acting "in lengthening" on some anatomical structures so as to create space to allow a better degree of articular excursion.
 

How much I tell you (I write)now , must not be taken literally! But try to make your own use of it and adapt this "thought of mine" to your way of training. I START SO: I CONSIDER MYSELF TO MY STUDENTS NOT ONLY A TEACHER, BUT I REPRESENT FOR THEM METAPHORICALLY ALSO; THE EARTH, THE LAND FROM WHICH THEY ARE ABLE TO DECIDE WHICH KIND OF NUTRITION TO EXTRACT, TO IMPROVE THEIR PHYSICAL AND MENTAL CONDITION.
 

My personal experience is that for many years I used my body, "physically" as a professional dancer (23 YEARS) and almost as many years, after my injury, as: person who needs "targeted" physical activity for reasons of muscle rehabilitation (16 YEARS). At one point I ask myself; BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN PERFORMING A MOVEMENT, WHAT IS IT? And it makes no difference whether they are exercises with technically more complex movements in their execution or to perform natural and simple movements. My answer? Here it is.

Metaphorically I see you students "adults over 30/40/50/60" like this: YOUR BODY IS A TREE. My reasoning is, that everything starts from the "seed" from which the tree is born. THE SEED IS YOUR "I". REPRESENTS YOUR THOUGHT AND YOUR SOUL. THE ROOTS, INSTEAD, ARE YOUR BRAIN and YOUR RATIONAL MIND THAT OPERATES YOUR MOVEMENTS. THE TRUNK IS THE BODY and THE BRANCHES ARE YOUR MOVEMENTS. FINALLY, THERE IS FRUIT. IT REPRESENTS THE RESULT OF THE WORK YOU HAVE DONE ON YOUR PHYSICS, YOUR EXERCISES AND YOUR TECHNIQUE. I like to see it like this too: THE MORE RED THE FRUIT, THE HEALTHIER IT IS. (I am smiling, BECAUSE AFTER THE FATIGUE I SEE THE STUDENTS PUPILS WITH RED FACES)

I want you to know, that in my lessons I DONT want you give too much importance to my skill or my physical and technical skills. What really matters to you is your personal "well-being", your constant progress in improvement, whatever it is, lesson by lesson. In dance as in gymnastics, we give each movement a purpose. But the movements of dance go "beyond" those of gymnastics. What i mean? It is my opinion that the difference between doing GYM (pilates, postural, etc, etc) and doing ACADEMIC DANCE EXERCISES is that, that the gymnastic movements are starting from the mind. movements of the dance start from the soul. Those of the dance are performed with harmony and elegance. They are performed in such a way that they can also arouse emotions in the viewer. We give movements "life", we give theme "SOUL".

FOR ME, THIS IS NOT ONLY VALID FOR DANCE MOVEMENTS, IT IS ALSO VALID FOR NATURAL MOVEMENTS YOU MAKE EVERYDAY . BECAUSE I STRONGLY BELIEVE: "THAT WE ARE SOUL". I want to give you a trivial example: When I walk on the street wearing a new elegant suit, I "strut" more. The gait of women who walk on heels instinctively leads them to sway more. I mean by these statements, that simple movement such as "taking steps" can be a movement that arouses emotion in the viewer. Emotions such as; admiration, aesthetic appreciation, interest, envy, embarrassment, etc, etc ... and why not, Joy and Happiness.

I AM CERTAINTY, that being able to "improve one's physical and mental condition" all starts there, from the seed. It is the seed, the thought, our soul, which initiates our well-being. Only later is the "mind" that will activated to be able to move. And when the movement becomes difficult and tiring, always remember why you are doing it. You do it for yourself !!! For this reason, for you to struggle will become a condition of pleasure. When muscles burn, it's PLEASURE. The harder you work, the more pleasure you feel. If you perform the exercise with this "positive" thought, even the most difficult becomes easier and lighter. Training with this attitude will profoundly improve your technique in a very short time.
 

EVERY DAY, OUR BODY AND MOOD ARE IN A DIFFERENT CONDITION. Only you know what kind of nourishment your body and state of mind need at that precise moment, on that day, in order to progress and feel good. You decide what to learn from me. For this in some of my advertisements you read: My Bodyequilbrium lessons are made of sensations, moments, emotions, looks, concentration, and above all corrections. The exercises are made to perform by the students in a personalized way. Based on their skills, trauma or muscular limitations, the exercise must be applied to each one with a personalized dynamism, depth and strength. The purpose of dance in this case is not in fact to make us become dancers, but to use all the benefits of this "physical activity"
