ALLE INFOS
ABOUT KRYSALIS
Krysalis is a dance program crafted by Kami Liddle. The objective of the overall program is to help dancers develop and refine their knowledge base and to experience and elevate the dancer through four individual courses. The intention is not to teach dancers to dance a particular way, but rather, to nurture the path of each dancer and give them the tools to create their own authentic movement.
Krysalis consists of four courses:
Invocation: Foundation of Contemporary Fusion Belly Dance Technique
Expansion: Professional Performance Intensive
Conception: Choreography Creation Lab
Elevation*: Advanced Technique
*Courses can be taken individually and in no particular order except for Elevation which requires certification of Invocation before enrolling.

ABOUT CONCEPTION
Conception is an inquiry-based intensive focused on the creative process of dance making and how to develop your voice as an artist.
You will spend 30 plus hours with a group of peers learning movement and technique paired with specific activities to explore how to arrange movement and make it your own. You’ll receive support, tools, and a community of peers as you create your own choreography, explore your vision, and take both to the next level.
We’ll delve into elements of time, space, shape, dynamics, musicality and texture, but then we’ll take it further. We’ll learn how to form your vision through movement and put it on your body, other dancers, and groups.
This intensive is geared towards dancers of any level or style, although 3 or more years of dance experience is recommended.
The Krysalis program is designed to meet you where you are, no matter the level.
So, if...
- you’re looking to develop your dance voice or hone in on what that vision is
- you’re searching for fresh tools to unblock your creative side when you get stuck
- you’re striving to move past merely emulating specific dance moves when making a choreography
...then join the group at the first Conception happening in Europe!

What about accommodation and parking in St. Gallen?
The city centre is very small and everything is within walking distance. There are several car parks in the city centre, but they are relatively expensive. The outdoor parking spaces in the neighbourhood are cheaper, but usually limited in time. You can buy daily or monthly permits for unlimited parking in certain zones. You can find more information here.
Hotels are relatively expensive in Switzerland and it's a good idea to check out Airbnb options. Dancers stayed at the TouchBed City Apartments before, which they found highly recommendable. To help you find your way around St. Gallen, we have created a map of all sorts of places we found useful.
Amanda Pittoreska, Kami Liddle and her staff have the right to deny enrollment or participation to anyone at any time before or during the course.
The number of spots is limited. As soon as the event is sold out, we will open a waiting list. Please contact us via info@pittoreska.com to register. The waiting list works on a first come, first served basis.
