This workshop will support each individual, regardless of experience, to grow in their own solo and contact improvisation embodiment and skills.
Each session of the workshop we will focus on one of the 7 major energy centers as a lens through which we build solo and partnering skills that support contact improvisation. Working from the ground up we expand our abilities to listen to ourselves and our partners so that the flow of life energy can move effortlessly through us as we improvise in contact.
The following themes gleaned from the 7 major energy centers will weave their way into the workshop:
๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐๐ต (๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐/๐น๐ฒ๐ด๐/๐ฝ๐ฒ๐น๐๐ถ๐ฐ ๐ณ๐น๐ผ๐ผ๐ฟ)
Creating and deepening a felt sense of connection and safety with the earth through yielding, grounding and rebounding. Continuously sensing the ground through own and partner's body and integrating feet, legs and pelvic floor to the rest of the body.
๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ (๐ฝ๐ฒ๐น๐๐ถ๐)
Connecting with the primary element in our bodies, water, to re-member our intrinsic flow. Accessing the power and fluidity of the pelvis and integrating it with the rest of the body. Using momentum to create more ease in dancing and intentionally going off balance to create opportunities for the joy of falling and flying.
๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ (๐๐ผ๐น๐ฎ๐ฟ ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ๐ ๐๐)
Moving from our own center and connecting to partnerโs. Delighting in and deepening one's solo dance while dancing with partner(s). Exploring the organs of liver, stomach and kidneys as support for empowered dancing.
๐๐ถ๐ฟ (๐น๐๐ป๐ด๐, ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐บ๐, ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐)
Expanding the awareness of the lungs and breath as well as the arms and hands and their relationship to the heart. Developing strategies for creating lightness in the body and allowing the spectrum of heart qualities to dance us.
๐ฆ๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฑ & ๐ฉ๐ถ๐ฏ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป (๐บ๐ผ๐๐๐ต, ๐ท๐ฎ๐, ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ธ)
Freeing up the neck, throat and jaw and allowing sound as a means to open self expression while we move. Integrating the head and torso though the pathway of the digestive tube and refining the ability to work with spherical space and inversions.
๐๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ & ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป (๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐)
Exploring different ways of seeing with our eyes and our imagination. Using Barbara Dilleyโs 5 eye practices as a springboard for the journey to expand our ways of perceiving so we have more choices in our dancing.
๐ฆ๐ผ๐๐ฟ๐ฐ๐ฒ (๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ป)
Navigating the head as a limb to find ease in aligning vertically as well as moving through spherical space. Integrating all parts of the body, mind and spirit so that the life force flows freely. Letting go of ego control and letting in Universal guidance by opening up the crown of the head to deep listening to the unknown.
