On Confluence:
Contact Improvisation intensive based on somatic work with Christina Klissiouni (Greece) We explore CI developing awareness to our physical mind through our fascia systems aiming towards connectivity, wholeness and flow. We make contact with our inner microcosm and its rhythms that support us. We use hands-on work and visualization from experiential anatomy to enhance our CI skills and discover the poetry in our dances through a listening, relaxed and soft body. Becoming aware of the oscillations and the inner pulsations that become pathways of energy and deploy into movement, we experience fluidity, musicality, better relationships that support integration. We are interested in breaking habits as we stretch our boundaries safely while movement unfolds itself naturally and efficiently. CI becomes a dance meditation, a play of qualities or “states of being”, a physical dialogue between the dancers where infinite possibilities unfold themselves. |

Feldenkrais into Improvised Composition
with Simonetta Alessandri We will start with a Feldenkrais class where we use simple and exploratory sequences to questioning the organisation of our movement, to free ourselves from unhelpful patterns and to discover new functional alternatives. Gradually we expand our movement into space exploring how the reorganization and integration that happens in the body after the Feldenkrais experience can inform our dancing with new sensations and coordination that lead toward surprising new territories. After we will work in duet and in group with exercises that encourage our ability to make compositional decisions, particularly to be aware of how our movement relates to space. We will develop our capacity to listen, to look and to perceive what is happening and find the moment to make a choice. |

Contact Improvisation Through Experiential Anatomy with Daniel Mang
In this workshop we will combine and juxtapose the study of anatomy with imagery-based movement improvisation and contact improvisation. We will refine our awareness of inner spaces and body rhythms, of the space around us and of what we can hear, smell and see. We will use images, some more poetic, some more prosaic, of structures in our bodies, to help us change state and develop satisfying movement. We will study and absorb some anatomical images, explore aspects of our own anatomy through guided movement, and learn to distinguish a few key structures by touch (palpation). Along the way we will learn something about the nervous system; about different kinds of connective tissue, such as fascia and bones; about the function of various muscles and what nerves connect to them (innervation); and about the biomechanics of some joints. The knowledge gained about the shape and function of elements of our body will enable us to use more precise anatomical imagery in our further movement explorations. |
