During these three mornings, I will share my practice rooted in house dance and other street dance techniques. My work focuses on weight and grounding, drawing energy from the floor. Together, we will explore both personal and collective swing and groove. In my own practice, I am interested in investigating the dancer’s will, lust, intention, and the influence of music on the dance.

Jens Jeffry Trinidad is a Filipino-Norwegian performing and creating dance artist with a background from X-Ray/UKH in Oslo, where he began dancing hip hop in the late 90s. In his own projects and works, Jens approaches choreography from a performer’s perspective, with the act of performing as a central driving force both in the process and on stage. He is rooted in club and street dance styles and works across projects within contemporary dance and performance. Currently, Jens is developing his own practice, focusing on physicality—presence, sensorial awareness, and new approaches to movement—while also challenging genre conventions.
