From elskeseidel at hotmail.com Thu Jan 21 14:35:42 2016 From: elskeseidel at hotmail.com (Elske Seidel) Date: Thu, 21 Jan 2016 20:35:42 +0100 Subject: [CI-Announce] CI Training Program in Hamburg/Germany 2016/17 with Elske Seidel and Daniel Werner In-Reply-To: References: , <552E694D.1040601@dancecontact.de>, , , , , , , , , , Message-ID: CI Training Program 2016/17 Hamburg (Germany) Elske Seidel and Daniel Werner In our CI Training Program we wish to take the intensive experience of a workshop into a longer process, opening a field of continuous learning, relating and dancing with each other in an on-going group. We want to offer a space to develop our moving body, deepen our understanding and personal journey into this dance through a longer period of time. This CI Training Program creates the opportunity to study Contact Improvisation systematically and continuously with a group of people we come to trust. It offers precise technique, somatic movement research (learning from within) and support for the individual learning process. In the technical part of our investigation, we will work in smaller groups in order to offer ?tools? and material for people with different levels of experience. We seek to create space for individual interests and needs. In our work it is important to us to maintain the balance between a technical exploration as a development of a mutual language and the freedom of speaking this language ? dancing ? communicating, improvising, playing freely in dance. We are interested in how awareness, trust and feeling within the group will change, develop and grow ? how is our communication, our interaction and our actual way of being together influenced by our dance practice and our time together? This year we are excited to offer an ?open continuation? which will build on the experience and material of the previous CI Training Program in Hamburg. We want to create the opportunity to learn and play with a group of people sharing a common knowledge of CI. At the same time we would like to invite people who are interested in this kind of learning environment. We would like to offer inspiration and new material for dancers with more experience as well as opening an easy and welcoming entry for those who come in freshly. All participants will receive a certificate including the content of the training program.
