Scores Composition and Site Specific Performance/Exploration

***************************

12. Aug – 14. Aug 2025

• Tuesday          10:00 – 17:00 Uhr
• Wednesday    10:00 – 17:00 Uhr
• Thursday       10:00 – 16:00 Uhr

 

 

Content: playful and focused approach to scores. Includes: movement sourcing, tuning scores, ensemble states, authentic movement, instant composition and improvisation. For those
interested in performing and those interested in not performing (for example: discovering our
selves as improvisors, connecting with others through movement, deepening our movement
practice. We start with connecting to our bodies and then take it into group explorations.
Getting lost. Composition as mediation. The material will range from compositional practice
to exploring the intangibles (curiosity, vulnerability, commitment, presence). We will work with
the spirit of exploration—not jumping to judgement /evaluation— and will learn as much by
watching each other as by being watched. While the aim is to practice composition and explore
the intangibles we will also undercut the hype of “performing” with the practice of witnessing.

• • Sourcing–connecting with your body, impulses + spontaneity
  • Ensemble states–tuning exercises, composition and non-composition,
  • Performance Jam–open space with intention and group focus
  • Scores–the way in,
  • Aesthetics–how we watch

Cellular Touch & Flying

15. Aug  –  17. Aug 2025 

• Friday             13:00 – 19:45 Uhr
• Saturday        10:00 – 17:00 Uhr
• Sunday           10:00 – 16:00 Uhr

Contact improv / flying maneuvers / fluid acrobatics
We will start with contact practices in which sensation and proprioception lead to refined
skills. We will work with physics and somatics that support freedom of flight and
expression. (Pleasure 㲗 Technique; Somatics → Acrobatics)
Aerial aspects of contact improvisation: flying, catching, landing, fluid acrobatics, deft
maneuvers. For the acrobatics. Everyone will work at their own level and will learn best
by building group safety and trust. We will practice integrating the flying and acrobatics
into the contact flow. That is: aerial interactions that increase the contact.
We’ll do some of my favorite contact exercises and current curiosities. Created or
learned over the decades investigation and indulgence.
