COMP CAMP – Contemporary and improvisation dance camp

Gran Canaria, Spain
Camino Art House

Welcome to our yearly contact improvisation and contemporary dance camp at Camino Art House. This year we gave the name “comp” which is a playfulness with words: it includes COMPosition, COntemporary, COntact and iMProvisation, COnnakol.

You will experience a fusion of different types of dance styles and deepen your knowledge and practice in a colourful variety of methods. The main goal is to get to know your body, build confidence in your movement and learn to use the space while playing and cooperating with others. In addition we will meet a music focus; the ancient rhythm chanting, the Konnakol.
During the camp, you will have the chance to see some parts of the island as we are taking trips to different natural environments to practice dancing in nature (dunes, beach, rocks, mountain). There will be also one city day, when we rent a room with a proper dance floor to see the difference between dancing on the ground or on the floor and to experience how the environment can change our perspective and sensation. (for more detailed information read the program below).
