Aerial Silks

Dance and fly on the silks: a discipline born in the circus, where acrobatics and dance mix and an obstacle that looked impossible stops being one.

What it is

A spectacular, absorbing discipline born in the circus world, bringing together acrobatics, dance and movement. You climb the silks, you learn to use your body in space and you discover a new dimension of movement. You don't need to be an acrobat already: physical preparation is built up step by step, working on strength, coordination, mobility and control. There's a course for adults and one for children, which develops strength, coordination and balance by playing with movement and space.

Giro d'Italia a tavola — Liguria

The Renny turns into a small travelling fair: tables to share and recipes that taste of tradition. This time focaccia and trofie.

On the table

Focaccia and trofie. Each stop has a typical starter and a signature dish, with the room dressed up as that region.

How it works

Shared tables and an open kitchen, like a village fair: dinner from 8 pm, then dancing.

To be there

For a group table, write on WhatsApp to 349 2691293.

Swing Social Dance

One night a week you just dance, with no class. No course, no level: there's the music, and whoever wants to takes the floor. At the counter there's always someone who never takes the floor all night, and they're there for the music, for a drink and to watch.

No class

Nothing is taught: you practice, or you watch how it's done. Someone who just started dances with someone who's been at it for twenty years.

Even if you don't dance

The Banco A Ristoro is open, the kitchen is cooking, and sitting down doesn't commit you to anything.

5 Rhythms

by Alessia Ambu

Two hours of free dancing, no steps to learn: five rhythms one after the other, on your own and among others.

What it is

The 5 Rhythms are a movement practice born in the Seventies from Gabrielle Roth. There are no figures or choreographies to learn: you follow the music through five rhythms — flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness — which one after the other form a wave. You dance on your own and among others, and everyone moves however it comes.

To be there

To enroll, write or call the Renny, which passes the request on to whoever runs it.
