Ever stubbed your toe on the corner of a table? Driven by curiosity and precision, Luca‘s classes invite you to challenge your body, sharpen your awareness, and rediscover presence through movement. Through coordination-based exercises and playful movement, we’ll explore how to feel more connected—to ourselves, to space, and to the moment. “No experience needed. Just curiosity, a willingness to move, and maybe to laugh a little. Come for the fun. Leave with better reflexes, more body awareness—and hopefully, fewer stubbed toes.”

Luca Parolin is a Dancer & Movement Explorer: an Italian contemporary dancer and instructor with a rich background in performance, spanning from lyrical opera stages in Luxembourg to festivals in Costa Rica. Trained in hip hop, contemporary, and physical theatre, Luca brings a dynamic, playful, and deeply aware approach to movement. He’s collaborated with international companies such as Twain Physical Dance Theatre, Naturalis Labor, and E.sperimenti Dance Company.

This September, Lotte’s open level yoga classes for Iżfen ma’ ŻfinMalta will be hosted outdoors at ŻfinMalta Studios. Enjoy a gentle yoga class, overlooking Valletta Harbour to finish your day. “In these gentle yoga classes we will end our days tuning back into the body. Through simple guided movements, we focus on how and why we move, while at the same time exploring new ranges of motion. Through our breath we will process the day we’ve had, ending the class in full relaxation. Contrary to popular belief, yoga is an approachable practice that can be modified to anyone’s level. Above all it is a way to understand and care for ourselves. It is this which I wish to share in the classes I teach.”

BORDER, reflects on the lines we draw between us, that divide us and sustain us. Like rope binding and fraying, bodies combine and fracture, revealing an abyss of repetitive memories and ritual. BORDER explores a return to tradition in response to decay, a search for definition guided by a fear of the future.

BORDER is commissioned by Festivals Malta as part of Notte Bianca 2025.

“Come dance to the electro-pop: for a very energising wake up. Driven by a passion for sculpture and architecture, and starting from the assumption that our movement can carve the space and leave a trace behind, Riccardo leads a very high-paced, dynamic and spacious improvisation class that aims to unlock the body and stretch its movement potential into a million different directions. The focus of Riccardo’s work is on movement projection. Throughout the class, dancers are invited to look for the limits of their kinesphere and challenge their own habits in order to approach movement with a tridimensional perspective and to embrace the surrounding space fully.”

Riccardo Buscarini is a choreographer active in the field of contemporary dance, visual arts and opera.

Silk, his Golden Mask 2018 double-nominated creation on ChelyabinskContemporary Dance Theater (Russia) was restaged at ZfinMalta. In 2020 created a new piece for EDGE (The Place, London). In 2022 he created Requiem for Juliet for ZfinMalta. Riccardo has recently directed G. Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, Il Trittico and G. Verdi La Forza del Destino at Teatru Aurora in Gozo. In 2025 he made new works on Accademia Nazionale di Danza, MP3 Project (Rome) and Opus Ballet (Florence). He is the founder and artistic director of dAS Festival in Piacenza.
