About this Event

The touch Underneath A full-day workshop Contact-Improvisatie by Sebas van Wetten in Arnhem. ________Nederlands________ * In deze dag-workshop leer je een aantal contact impro technieken en hoe je die in jouw dans kunt laten samenvloeien; bijv. rollen, "lifts", navigeren om elkaar, balanceren, volgen & leiden, … Onder deze techniek ligt een laag van gedetailleerd en “embodied” voelen, en wordt het vertrekpunt voor onze dans... ________Engels________ * Learning to integrate some basic contact-impro techniques in the flow of your dance. This workshop will focus on various Contact-Impro aspects, such as easy rolling, little lifts, navigating around & over a partner, balancing & falling together, following & guiding, etc. In CI, under the techniques there is a deep layer of embodied sensing. The subtle sensing and communicating through the touch is what makes contact improvisation such a rich dance experience. This embodied sensing will be the starting point of our dancing days, bringing us gradually from body awareness to the more technical stuff. We will learn how to integrate this, so that we can grow from forms and exercises to a joyful flow of dancing. These workshops with Sebas will take everyone a bit further on their journey through the Contact-Impro world. With every level of experience you can learn something new. And of course, it is nice to move a longer period together, feeling your body and dancing with each other. ——————————————— * * * PRACTICALS * * * ——————————————— ● Please REGISTER and pay via : https://hipsy.nl/event/13655-the-touch-underneath-de-magie-van-contact-impro ● For questions about the content, experience, buying kneepads: ask Sebas: [email protected] or text/call 06 - 1833 4743 ● Price: € 65,- || early bird until 5 May: € 55; - if you bring a friend you get (another) €10 reduction - if payment is a problem, contact us, to find a solution ● Time: 10.00-16.30, with an hour break - bring your own lunch. ● Location: La Cappella, Oude Velperweg 36A, Arnhem (10 min. by bike from station Arnhem-C; or 10 min walk from station Arnhem-Perikshaaf) ● What to bring: - clothes to move easily; pants with long legs, without zippers/buttons/etc.; Slippery clothes are not so handy, as your partners will slide off of you in dancing. - bring enough T-shirts, especially if you sweat easily, your partners will love you for that. - water bottle and your lunch - knee-pads if you have.
