Each dancer carried out a period of artistic residency in the different destination countries, meeting in the morning with the local community, especially groups of male and female students from local dance schools, in the form of a seminar dedicated to the hybridisation of techniques and the exchange of practices. In the afternoon, they dedicated themselves to research aimed at the realisation of a solo that was presented in the form of a work in progress at the end of the residency.
