Interview with Los Little Guys about their career and approach to teaching contemporary dance in an international context.

Dancers Erik Elizondo and Dimitri Kalaitzidis talk about the origins of their passion for dance and their romantic encounter at SEAD (Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance) that was at the origin of their duo Los Little Guys. Sensitive to cultural difference and cultivating openness and pleasure in movement, the two artists adopt an approach to teaching that fosters horizontal relationships between teachers and students. With these two teachers, love leads to universal inclusion through dance. An encounter from the En aparté series produced by Circuit-Est.
