MOVING BEYOND #13
Feldenkrais Method - Contact Improvisation - Dance Making
Workshop with Thomas Kampe
20th - 25th AUGUST 2013
DESCRIPTION
In this workshop we will use explorations and concepts drawn from The Feldenkrais
Method® and Contact Improvisation. We will explore the use of touch, constraints
and structured problems as tools for finding ease, freedom, new patterns and
greater possibilities in our Improvised movement choices. The Feldenkrais Method®
is regarded as one of the most sophisticated and refined movement education
systems developed in the 20th century. In innovative, playful and precise ways, it
taps the intelligence of the human nervous system to produce higher levels of
function and movement ability. The Feldenkrais Method® is based on principles of
physics, biomechanics and an understanding of learning and human development.
LOCATION of this Workshop will be the San Marco’s Medieval Church, in the aerea of
Aidone (Enna, Sicily). The Church is located upon a hill which faces a luxuriant green
Valley. Quitness and stillness of the surronding landscape will offer an exclusive
chance of going through a unique experience.
FOOD - ACCOMODATION and FREE TIME
The staff will take care of the meals. People can sleep in Studio or Tent at free cost.
In the afternoon, after the class finishes, people can go and visit the surrounding
areas or just relaxing in the place of the Workshop.Musicians are pleased to bring
there instruments along so that we have the chance to play together.
