Event Details
Soft & wild … this is coming from a person who is passionate about deep listening, slow somatic work, effortlessness in mind & body – someone who doesn’t like forcing and pushing.
In my own dance a soft and slow approach lets me find the inner connectedness and trust with others to eventually move fast, to find my strength, make quirky choices, challenge myself and the predictable flow to go juicily beyond sense making.
I want to invite this quality while keeping the space safe enough. There is some animal quality that I’d like to ignite, where softness, availability and openness stay present when the dance embraces the wild and untamed.
Somatic work and technical essentials of CI will strengthen our shared vocabulary.
The Workshop will give inspiration for long term practitioners and is also welcoming for people who already have a sense of the basics of CI and want to go further and deeper. If in doubt check in with us
