Moving me, moving you - Axis Syllabus Lab Class into CI

𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲, 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 - 𝗔𝘅𝗶𝘀 𝗦𝘆𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝘂𝘀 𝗟𝗮𝗯 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 In the Axis Syllabus lab class we will dive into the world of researching our own movement patterns and breaking those. The focus of the class will be on the landing pads that are mapped and descripbed in the Axis Syllabus. Exploring those alone, in a specific pattern and in partner work shall deepen the understanding of the concept that meeting the floor can be a soft experience. After connecting to ourselves, we will find the link to weight sharing with the idea of the landing pads within contact improvisation. 𝗔𝘅𝗶𝘀 𝗦𝘆𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝘂𝘀 As an evolving reference system for human movement the Axis Syllabus offers many ways to look onto forms of movement. Physical inquiry and research through movement combined with scientific findings form this study of human movement. The Axis Syllabus can be looked at as a lense to raise the potentiality of your own movement. For the practice of contact improvisation the Axis Syllabus can provide a softening of the movement with partners. It can help to get into and out of the floor together with a greater flow and improve the organization of one's own body to be in contact with one another.
