ORGANIC INTERACTION From the Fluids into Gravity...

Once we are born, we sense the pull of gravity. In this intensive we will engage with movement patterns, the base for movement, and develop from there soft ways into Contact Improvisation techniques. Sensing a deep center connection, easy weight shifts into take off and leaving the ground.
In the womb, swimming in the fluids, movement is already happening: as vibration, attraction and repulsion, as sponging, as pulsation. When the transformations into shapes and patterns begin, we are forming a midline, a front and backbody, a center and a periphery – a complex system that enables us to move, sense, react, take in and let go. Once we are born and sense the pull of gravity, there is a lot to learn about coordination of all the parts of the body. Diverse needs appear, emotions and possibilities call us into action. As babies we explore movement patterns, each one being the base for the next.As adults we can revisit these inherent patters for the joy of it or to embody missing links and expand our variety of movement.
For one week we will dive into BMC material through movement exploration and hands-on touch and enter from there curious ways into Contact Improvisation.
