Workshop - Solo & Contact

Embrace Arts (Leicester) Sunday, March 6, 2-5pm

FREE - Limited places (Contact Ruth Bates rbates@leicesterymca.co.uk)

This workshop is rooted in the technical principles of Contact Improvisation and release-based Contemporary Dance. We use these techniques as tools to expand our physical capacity as solo dancers, with a partner and in group improvisation. They will feed our personal range of movement vocabulary and offer new approaches for choreographing and creating set material. After a start with dynamic group improvisations we continue on our own with alignment and awareness exercises and then alternate technical improvisations with simple movement phrases. Breaking down and practising patterns of falling, folding and softening into the floor, do's and don'ts of taking weight through the bones and a softness of skin and bones when dancing as a soloist will open our body and mind's sensitivity to listen and read another body when entering into contact and into group improvisations.

"Solo & Contact" - class at

Contact-meets-Contemporary

*Annual International Festival for
Contact Improvisation and Contemporary Dance* July 28th- August 2nd 2009 in Goettingen Germany

Contact Improvisation and Contemporary Dance. Two worlds, two techniques, two communities. This festival is designed for people who have an interest in bridging the worlds of Contact Improvisation and Contemporary Dance. People who have their dancing home in either the CI community or the contemporary dance scene and who are curious about the knowledge of the other world will have the opportunity to combine them both. The common ground where we meet is improvisation.
At this festival, the two worlds will meet, discover, clarify and enrich one another, finding ways to merge.

*Intensives 2009: *
Mirva Mäkinen: Contact Improvisation
Ingo Reulecke: Contemporary Technique
Thomas Kampe: Feldenkrais into Instant Composition
