In this course we will explore the gentle side of Contact Improvisation; an interactive movement practise which uses the fundamentals of sharing weight, finding balance and attunement. Aiming to develop sensitivity to our own and others movements and how they can relate harmoniously to each other.
Through guided movement practises we dive into the wonderful world of body work, creating space to move mindfully while focusing on the connections between the different parts of our anatomy. Blending Contact Improvisation, human anatomy, the work of Irmgard Bartenieff and massage these meetings will be a delicious mix that will calm the body and warm the heart.
Content & Structure: Each meeting will explore a different connection between two parts of our anatomy.
- The craniosacral connection (Head & Tail)
- From core to sole (Pelvis & Feet)
- Heart and hands (Sternum & Hands)
- Root to Reach (Whole body)
We will explore these parts through solo movement, followed by partnerwork (such as guiding each other in movement, massage or locating muscles or bones). We then carry our movement research into a dialogue of dance and movement, ending in playful connection.
