If you ever met the enthusiastic and inspiring Artem Markov you know that diving in for a four day workshop will be absolutely amazing.
If you have not met him, this is a great time to do so! Artem has an incredible amount of experience in dancing, Somatics and CI, and brings novel and great ways to build up excercises and facilitate real embodied learning.
The workshop is called "From Small Dance to Wild Flight"
Below some of the description of the workshop:
Physicality, technical skills, subtlety, pleasure, depth, strength and lightness. Can these qualities be in your dance at the same time?
In contact improvisation, we are accustomed to playing with the fall of the central axis, which is called the small dance. The fall of the vertical axis is one of the main tools that initiates movement in space.In somatic approaches based on BMC (Body-Mind Centering), we utilise the material of human embryonic development to see how new forms and new possibilities of movement are nurtured within us. I invite you to dive into profound method of embryological bodywork and find your own depth. We will also learn from imagination qualities for flying.
Additionally, you will study to recognise movement directions, the vector of movement. Birds can soar on air currents, surfers glide on the waves of ocean movement. You will learn to distinguish the directions of movement in order to surrender to the flow and not argue with physical forces.
