About This Event

About the workshop: POLARITIES OF DANCE

Starting from the practice of skills that safeguard the body in landing, bearing weight, and organizing the structure in transitions, we will collectively research ideas of playful challenging of each other to create surprising situations that train alert, focused attention and responsive bodies. We will build and deconstruct movement patterns in order to continuously enrich and enliven the spirit of improvisation. Through the qualities of recoiling and re-bouncing we will generate plasticity in the body and simultaneously allow the exploration of surprising redirecting, unpredictability of upper and lower dancer, alive and unrehearsed movement while dancing with others.

Inspired by the principles of Contact Improvisation and Capoeira.

These sessions are suitable both for beginners and for experienced practitioners, who wish to experiment and develop their practice.

All workshop participants can join the open jam and performance night with complimentary pass.
