A weekend full of dancing

25/26 September 2021

Dear dancers,

nice that we can dance together at such short notice. Based on your feedback and requests, I have put the topics together so that they complement each other harmoniously. Melody of the Body takes place in the morning and prepares you ideally for the following workshop. You can of course book the workshops individually and combine them individually.

Since I unfortunately only have a limited number of places available, I ask for your understanding that I will allocate the places in the order in which they are registered. Since it is already becoming apparent that you are more interested than space is available, I would divide the last free spaces among the last applicants so that everyone can enjoy at least one workshop.

Melody of the body

WS M 1 Saturday 25.9., 11.00 a.m. - 1.30 p.m. Focus element water / flowing movements

WS M 2 Sunday, September 26th, 11.00 a.m. - 1.30 p.m. Focus on the element earth / movements from the center of the body

Arrive, breathe, feel and dance out of the feeling.

This series of workshops would like to invite you to explore creative spaces and let movement flow from deep within. We play with positive affirmations, archaic symbols and enter into a lively dialogue with the music.

At the beginning there is a holistic creative warm-up, which gently attunes to the respective central topic of the workshop and brings the body both physically and energetically into the flow.

WS 1 (Saturday)

The heart of the workshop are the flowing movements of the oriental dance in harmony with the music. We are inspired by the element water and its various qualities. There are infinite ways to play under this theme.

Here are just a few inspirations:

Flow of movement

the liberated movement

everything is one

from letting go and more

infinite transformation or the ocean within me

...

WS 2 (Sunday)

The heart of this workshop is the element earth and the topics related to it, such as alignment, connection, trust and of course grounding. The focus is on the dance from the middle of the body and the powerful rhythmic movements of the pelvis, which we dance anew in interaction with some selected oriental rhythms.

WS gestures of feeling

Saturday, 2.30 p.m. - 5 p.m.

In the second workshop we deal with the expressive gestures of arm and hand movements, which in oriental dance represent a very unique body language. You will discover that arm figures can be so much more than just beautiful frames. They are the key to your individual expression.

Here are some creative focuses:

- Symbolism of archaic arm figures - a meditative approach

- filigree arm figures of the Egyptian style & their expressive contemporary variants

- Arms and body planes

- energy of movement

- the universe of the hand circle

- Gestures of feeling

WS The magic of the snake

Sunday, 2.30 p.m. - 5 p.m.

Dance is ongoing transformation. Movements come to life when we give them dynamism - on the one hand through perceived content (expression), on the other hand through permanent variation. The snake is an ancient archaic symbol of renewal and change. In oriental dance there are many movements that imitate the snake. We want to track this down not only technically, but also energetically. You will learn beautiful, smooth combinations that will refine your style. The flexibility of your hands, arms and spine is trained and you learn how you can combine individual movements in such a way that a harmonious sequence of movements is created. We also undertake a little excursion into Haitian dance with its expressive

ritual snake movements. The workshop is definitely a special experience and gives you the opportunity to experience a powerful facet of yourself in a new way.
