Blowing Up a Snapshot – Improvising with images | Class, 18-19 may

Everything what we can see and feel  around us affect  our dance and quality of movement. We are able to sense our space of resonance and the bridge between the body-mind and motion.

If we embody the  inner images into our dance and stay  present and open, we experience a greater harmony. There we may find and embrace otherwise hidden deeper meanings of our Selves, lives.

In this two days we will work with  focused attention to our perception; improvise in solo, duet and group. We will search and explore answers and find more questions in the following themes:

– connection between the images / senses and physical movement

– communication through the ” imagebody”

– snapshots – images – afterimages – engrams

– recolouring: details, smells, voices, feelings, remembering

– playing with our stories and traveling through  space and time

 This class is open for all levels.
