Presentation:
Touch is one of our primal senses ,we grow in contact from the very beginning of our intra utérin life.
We find balance in our first steps with the dialogue with gravity, embrace the worlds through our hands and bodies in movement.
The organic being we were designed to be frame itself into pattern of society adaptations and behaviors.
The source of play and pleasure of touch and contact is still present in our adult life and often shortened to a more intimate way to relate, within family and friends relationship sometimes and more often limited to love relationships.
Crawling onto the ground getting dirty is pretty rarely happening in modern society anymore.
During this week of laboratory in movement we invite you to redesign the potentiality of contact and ecstatic play through the movement practices that we love the most. Contact Improvisation to understand and grow our physical vocabulary in relating in the dance and build a strong ground in knowing the level of intimacy that is adapted to engage in this interactions with ease and safety. Authentic movement in nature to dive in the magical and sensorial relationship to the elements and the adventurous journey or gestures and postures that expand our perceptions or self and the universe. The 5Rhythms movement practice to develop individual embodiment and ground the maps that support letting go and affirmation in the metaphorical space of dance that have a positive impact into our postures and moves in daily life in our ways to relate and to take action. Thaï massage to care for our bodies and cultivate the goodness fo care within our group.
5 adventurous days in the wild nature of Algarve to expand your dance, relax your nervous system and free your mind from the unnecessary busyness.
