Italian gestures workshop

According to the anthropologist, Desmond Morris “hands are for human beings like a stick for the conductor of an orchestra, with which we direct the rhythm and meaning of words. Using this metaphor I believe that Italians are the best 'orchestra’s conductors' in the world"...
...and yes! Of course, we are! If you believe that Italians are well known only for PASTA and PIZZA E MANDOLINO, well, we also love to shake our hands!! There is a whole world made of gestures and signs that we use to communicate with each other. Lots of hours saved without words...don't you think? ;)

So, if you are wishing to learn a new language but you're not willing to spend hours on boring grammar books... throw them in the air and join me in the quest of the language of Italian gestures!

​

An italian culture workshop linked to the main signs and gestures Italian people use in their everyday life to communicate with each other using only their hands and without speaking.


The workshop's structure:
1. The “Theoretical” one. Explanation of the gestures through a powerpoint presentation
2. Final Game to let people learn more gestures having fun.
