About this Event

BERLIN WORKSHOP & JAM MIX Contact Impro, Tango & Tai Chi: Expanding our Joyfulness, Wellbeing, Atunement and Authenticity Through play and dance, we will nurture our physical and emotional wellbeing with a rich variety of movement and physical contact. The mix of Contact Improvisation, Tango and Martial arts will allow to deepen our possibility to tune with others and at the same time listen to our own needs and musicality. This special mix of dance disciplines (together with Physical expressivity, Fusion, Somatic and Biomecanics elements), will allow us a channel for our own authenticity while being among others. This open combination, boundless of a given style, developed in a playful environment, provides the possibility to deepen the understanding of ourselves and our physical emotional relation with society and Nature.
