about the workshop
We will get into the flow of our bodies by using various techniques from the fields of Movement, Partner Work, Improvisation, Massage and Somatics. And dive into a Moving Massage Technique that I am still researching.
Improvisation
We will use the patterns from our Mobility, Movement, Soft Acrobatic and Partner Work sessions to create different tasks for improvisation, and the other way around. It's about expanding your movement vocabulary, find new connections, releasing, dancing and having fun. We will playfully put together all the techniques we learn from the beginning and go into improvisations, alone and with tactile help from another person. You can get into your own rhythm, move and let yourself be moved.
Moving Massage
Have you ever had the feeling of moving yourself during a massage?
I will present basic massage techniques that you can use when the other person is moving or being still. Create a safe space to try, receive, give, feel and release.
Somatics
During the workshop we will get into a lot of movement and contact. We will dive into detailed techniques and explore the freedom of movement. In both ways we will train our mindfulness and body awareness. It is important to me that we create a safe space together where we can move freely and share. Emotions that have built up may come to the surface. This can take the form of laughter, crying or express itself in other feelings. However, this does not always have to be the case. Nevertheless, I would like to draw attention to this and highlight this important point for the workshop. My practice is very somatic and I would like to invite you to get to know more about yourself and your body. Please be aware of this and assess for yourself whether the workshop is something for you. You are also welcome to contact me.
Partner Work
How much weight can I put on another body? How can I make myself stable and nimble at the same time? How can I keep the control of my own movement while another person is guiding me? From Basic Partnering (Contact Improv) exercises to new ideas. Let's move each other.
The workshop is for anyone who wants to get more into their flow physically and mentally, expand their movement practice, body language and range of motion, and learn something new and share it with others.
I found inspiration in the following areas: different Massage Techniques, Dance, Improvisation, Partnering, Partner Acrobatics, Contact Improvisation, Movement Research, Pilates, Feldenkrais, Soft Acrobatics, Mobility and Fascia Training and probably many other areas, from various teachers, mostly in Berlin, Barcelona and Sydney.
