I am a dancer,\u00a0dance-teacher, performance-artist and bodyworker made in Finland.<\/p>\n

I have studied dance- and theatre pedagogy in Finland, Helsinki- in Theatre Academy of Finland, from where I got my master\u00b4s degree 2008. Though - I would say my dearest high-school and university in contact-improvisation has been the finnish contact community, where I have learned so much from my collagues, friends and fellow dancers, by sharing the dance and rolling\u00a0point almost 30 years...\u00a0<\/p>\n

Contact Improvisation has been my lover since i was a teenager !
So - I\u00b4ve gone through many kind of chapters with her.<\/p>\n

Recently I\u00b4m more and more interested in details, quality, fine tuning, listening and presence - accompanied with deeper understanding of\u00a0underlying principles of contact improvisation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Breath plays as well big part in my dancing. It brings me naturally into moments of momentum, falling, flying, swinging and bouncing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dancer, performer, facilitator.<\/p>\n

I started my dance exploration journey over 15 years ago, although the first seeds of curiosity for body and spiritual practices were planted back in my childhood by my oldest sister, who offered me a glimpse of the great gifts of Yoga and meditation. These two have been pillars on my development as a curious soul and body.<\/p>\n

A constantly growing need for the expansion of that movement led me to water those seeds with different dance forms until deciding to focus on studying Contemporary Dance at the university in Costa Rica and Argentina, while performing as part of different dance projects and ensembles.\u00a0During those years, nutrients such as physical theatre, acroyoga, capoeira and tango became a great support and prepared me to meet Dance Improvisation and Contact Improvisation, an already enormously rich soil with grown trees, where I was offered to eat its fruits since the first encounter.\u00a0
Those seeds of consciousness, playfulness, creativity and poetry traveled to the soil I had been preparing and now I'm witnessing them sprout and grow into everchanging fields of movement possibilities.<\/p>\n

I have been immersed in the practice, study and teaching of CI in different workshops and festivals in Spain and Portugal.\u00a0

CI got into my life first time in Portugal. I visited a class, not knowing what i was doing but somehow I was hooked. So when I flew back home I knew I want to know more about this dance, the movement, the touch and the communication that takes place within Contact Imrovisation.\nFor me communication is key (not only) for Contact Improvisation. By this I mean: Communication within myself, through the other body and trying to deeply understand how the other is communicating with me, within him\/herself and through my body.\nIn 2020 I even wrote my bachelor thesis about the embodiement of gender in the contact improvisation. This also led me to the idea to create a safer space for FLINTA* and make courses for them only.<\/p>\n\n

Since 2022 I try to get a deeper understanding of the physical aspects of contact improvisation.

\u2018A room and a time for practising deep listening and to allow personal metaphors and inner landscapes to emerge, dance as a poem of gesture and expression that releases both generative power and graceful fragility\u2019.<\/p>\n

Imagine a space where body becomes language, a movement poem that reveals itself moment by moment, without predefined rules, just deep listening and trust in the other. An authentic encounter, where gravity is an accomplice and balance a continuous negotiation. Bodies brush against each other, support each other, dialogue without words, in an uninterrupted flow of energies and sensations. Contact Improvisation is a dance of presence, a celebration of life in motion, a present moment in which bodies meet and separate, creating invisible geometries and unpredictable paths. It is a practice of exploration, of discovery, of deep connection with oneself and with others.<\/p>\n

Attraverso una continua ricerca, Linda si innamora costantemente nella Contact Improvisation. La natura trasformativa, curativa e auto-empotente della CI la ispira e la tocca profondamente. I suoi insegnamenti\/inviti sono talvolta giocosi e influenzati anche da BMC, Qi Gong, Bal Folk ed elementi di Shiatsu.<\/p>\n

Linda vive in Svizzera dove insegna CI settimanalmente a Zurigo e Winterthur. Da anche workshops e ritiri di Bal Folk e accompagna i bambini in un asilo nel bosco nel loro percorso di vita nella e con la natura.<\/p>\n

Dal 2018 \u00e8 una mamma felice.<\/p>\n

Insegnanti importanti: La natura, Zuna e Milan Kozanek, Scott Wells, Julian Hamilton, Chris Aiken, Nita Little, Lilo Stahl, Bernd Ka, Mirva Makinnen, Ray Chung, Lior Ophir e tutti i partecipanti dei corsi, oltre a tutte le innumerevoli persone e amici incredibili con cui ho gi\u00e0 avuto l'onore di danzare.<\/p>\n

Au cours des deux derni\u00e8res d\u00e9cennies, elle a organis\u00e9 des jams et des jams de week-end, a enseign\u00e9 des semaines de s\u00e9minaire \u00e0 la Z\u00fcrcher Hochschule der K\u00fcnste, a donn\u00e9 des ateliers en France, au Portugal, en Allemagne et en Suisse et dirige des retraites CI. Gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 une recherche continue, Linda tombe toujours de nouveau amoureuse de la Contact Improvisation. Les aspects transformateurs, gu\u00e9risseurs et \"self-empowering\" de la CI l'enthousiasment et la touchent au plus profond d'elle-m\u00eame. Ses cours\/invitations sont en partie ludiques et \u00e9galement influenc\u00e9s par le BMC, le Qi Gong, le Bal Folk et des \u00e9l\u00e9ments du Shiatsu.<\/p>\n

Linda vit en Suisse, o\u00f9 elle enseigne CI chaque semaine \u00e0 Zurich et Winterthur. Elle donne des ateliers de Bal Folk et accompagne les enfants dans un jardin d'enfants de nature et de mouvement sur leur chemin de vie dans et avec la nature.<\/p>\n

Danzatrice, Contact Improviser (CI), ricercatrice di movimento indipendente.<\/p>\n

Dopo molti anni di pratica intensa\u00a0delle tecniche di danza moderne e contemporanee (Horton, Laban, Cunningham, Release) nel 2021 incontro e mi innamoro profondamente della Contact Improvisation, la quale diviene sorprendentemente il cuore della mia esplorazione. Si apre per me un nuovo modo di vivere il movimento, dove tutto \u00e8 profondamente connesso.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Da allora, ho praticato e studiato intensamente CI soprattutto all'interno della comunit\u00e0 di Venezia, dove ho partecipato in modo attivo con il gruppo d'improvvisazione Stormo. Dal 2023 insegno, pratico ed eseguo lavori basati o ispirati alla Contact Improvisation, spesso in duetto con il musicista improvvisatore Francesco Settimo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

''Per me la CI \u00e8 una pratica quotidiana che desidera abitare il corpo, risvegliare la sua intelligenza e il suo potenziale di movimento. Significa giocare, interrogarsi, esplorarsi, accedere alle forze fisiche elementari, agli stati di presenza, ricettivit\u00e0 e sensibilit\u00e0 intiuitiva. Una ricerca che coinvolge ogni ambito e che riguarda la nostra capacit\u00e0 creativa, la nostra attitudine all'ascolto degli altri\/e, la nostra presenza sul pianeta che abitiamo''.\u00a0<\/p>\n

La mia ricerca artistica \u00e8 concentrata sui valori dell'improvvisazione in contatto e all'esplorazione del modo in cui viviamo, pensiamo e sentiamo attraverso il corpo, intrecciando CI, releasing, teatro fisico, partnering, floorwork, bodywork, performance scores. Lavoro con adulti e bambini con la politica del contatto, l'esperienza tattile e sensoriale, la sana relazionalit\u00e0.<\/p>\n

Mi laureo in Teatro e Arti Performative presso l'Universit\u00e0 Iuav di Venezia con una tesi di ricerca magistrale sulla CI.\u00a0<\/p>","website":null,"facebook":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/valentina.rotta.3\/"},{"id":1004,"name":"Natalie Gan","bio":"

Maaike studied dance at the dance academy in Tilburg (NL), with David Zambrano, Julien Hamilton and among others. She worked as a dancer with choreographers as Loic Perela, Anne-beth Schuurmans, Marie Goeminne, T.R.A.S.H. and Karen Boesser (DE). She finds a constant eagerness to learn more about the body\u2019s expression and how dance can contribute to people\u2019s mental and physical health. For several years she has been creating dance-performances for a very young audience (1+) in collaboration with musicians. With Reineke Jonker she runs the Theaterhuiskamer where stories of different communities are transformed into theatre. Last year she created 'Little Movement', her first first dance-movie as a choreographer in collaboration with Sergio Gridelli.
