The workshop will focus on:
1) gravity/levity,
2) relaxation/activity,
3) center/periphery,
4) the spine and the senses.
We begin by arriving in the space physically, emotionally and mentally, alone, in pairs and collectively. To be ready for the present moment, we empty ouselves so that we can learn and receive, explore and experience, give and take. We build a connection with our body on a deeper level, we let go and relax fully into a spacious sense of time which allows for various activities to come into play, we explore gravity and the inner energy which comes from our center and moves through our whole body right to the periphery.
We will spend special attention to the relationship of the head/tail connection and strengthen the relationship of the center to the extremities of the body so that our take-offs and landings and our travelling through space are all brave, smooth and safe. Breath, relaxation and letting go is directly connected to being grounded and centered while moving dynamically.
Each day we will practice a specific Contact skill and work with enlivening the senses so that we can be really open to finding immediate creative solutions. Tuning, toning and enlivening our entire being, creates a state of readiness which leads us to fuller, vibrant, connected dancing. We can then enjoy the richness of our dancing alone, in pairs and as a group.
150 euro for Russian CI festival participants;
220 euro for those who comes only for the workshop.
