release.activate.connect

Holistic Dance is an invitation to transformation through dance, movement and touch. We work with a dynamic, cross-method approach from dance pedagogical, dance- and body therapeutic, systemic and holistic methods. Authentic Movement Plus, Contact Improvisation, Somatics & Applied Anatomy, Contemporary Dance Improvisation, Ecosomatics and many other elements can be found in this approach.

This workshop addresses our ability to be present with each breath, movement and connection, to dance in a state of deep release and immediate activation. Incorporating somatic principles, developmental movement and anatomical investigations with Improvisation, release.activate.connect allows us to connect to the mindfulness of our innate body wisdom. 


Dancing works best when we allow ourselves to be soft and clear, in communication and connection to our own needs and others. Our goal in the improvisation is increased internal awareness, sensitivity, and connectivity that is available in the dance for self- referencing (anatomical/sensory) and connection, while dancing solo, with a partner or in group improvisations.

We will work on:

Breath: first awaking impulse to connect and prepare
Qualities of Connection: how, when, who to connect with
Fascia: connectivity and interconnections
Spine: 3Dimensionality and access to the nervous system
Developmental Movement patterns: reconnecting and integrating the early stages
Presence: attention with self, others and space
Full bodied improvisation: articulation and expression
Risktaking and Boundaries: listening and expanding

Open for all participants

Price: € 240 - € 180 / € 220 -€ 155 (Early Bird price until 16.8.24)
