Transmission has always been part of FIMAC’s DNA.

Under the guidance of this great teacher, they explore and perfect their art, confront their ideas and interpretations, and learn to dialogue with their peers. Passion, creativity and technique come together, revealing the students’ efforts and progress. It’s an inspiring experience for the audience, and a memorable one for the participants.
