About the event
In this 1 day workshop we will dance with the floor, with ourselves and together with each other. We will improvise and we will learn some ‘moves’, and sequences of movement that help our bodies to move smoothly and easily on, across, into and out of the floor. These movements we learn are also contain principles which serve coming into connection with another body/ other bodies.
Developing an understanding of the moving body in relation to gravity, space and to other bodies. Integrating floor-work techniques, Improvisational practices and Contact Improvisation to open new pathways and possibilities through the body. By providing tools to build up a functional understanding of the moving body in solo and with others, we can then find greater freedom to explore our own being through movement, and connecting to others through movement with clarity and awareness and precision.
