Moving me, moving you - Solo into Contact Improvisation Workshop

𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲, 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 - 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 WORKSHOP DATES: 09. - 11. Jan 2025 10.00 - 14.00 at Chaloklum, New place next to Red Pearl Resort: https://maps.app.goo.gl/bHhRxTody8Twz4MC6 In the workshop we will dive into the world of researching our own movement patterns and breaking those, before we get into contact with one another. We will focus on different CI principles using the lens of the Axis Syllabus to refine our movements and create more potentiality in our moving structures. Exploring those alone, in specific patterns and partner work shall deepen the understanding of the concepts. We will dive deeper into the concepts of landing pads, tensegrity and how our bones are moving in the body. Asking questions like: How can meeting the floor be a soft experience? How can biodynamics make our moves smooth and strong at the same time? And how can we keep our own flow while moving with someone else? We will jump, roll, research, soften, listen to good music and have fun with great music. We’ll also incorporate choreographic patterns to smoothly transition into solo movement, ensuring a mix of learning and fun throughout the workshop. 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 lens 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. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 There is so many definitions of contact improvisation and also it is kind of states that there is not one which captures what it is. I want to share what Ray Chung said Contact improvisation is for as I resonate with his description a lot 🙂 "Contact Improvisation is an open-ended exploration of the kinaesthetic possibilities of bodies moving through contact. Sometimes wild and athletic, sometimes quiet and meditative, it is a form open to all bodies and enquiring minds." —𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘙𝘢𝘺 𝘊𝘩𝘶𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘱 𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵, 𝘓𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘰𝘯, 2009 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗭𝘂𝘇𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗮 Zuzanna has been deepening her embodiment practice under influence of various international contact improvisation and contemporary dance teachers. She is deeply interested in applying movement principles highlighted by the Axis Syllabus into the practice of contact improvisation, as well as the Underscore structure. Zuzanna started dance at the age of 4 and continued her embodiment practices through martial arts, ballet, yoga, modern dance, and Axis Syllabus. She is passionate about the impact of connection between body and mind which she continues to discover through her work in coaching, IT, and dance. Teaching dance, co-organizing the Thailand Contact & Movement Arts Festival, Warsaw CI Flow Festival and working as an IT Consultant gives her the balance between headspace and movement art.
