Axis Syllabus und Contact Improvisation

Hey! I’ll be sharing a workshop with Nicola Bolzau in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Axis Syllabus und Contact Improvisation mit dem Fokus auf energy alignment
Workshop am 27./28. August 2011

Nicolas Unterricht fokusiert den sequentiellen Einsatz des Körpers, um sich effizient und mit Spaß bewegen zu können. Der unterschiedliche Gebrauch von Spannung und Energie führt zu einem weichen und leichten Bewegungsfluß.

Rajendra´s workshop will explore movement as energy alignment. Dance can be both a catalyst to change our inner state and expression of our inner state. In this class we will practice attention to changing states. We will play between the gravitational pulls of the earth and the energetic fields of our bodies.

PÅ DANSK

Rajendra Serber underviser lørdag 6 august, kl 12 - 17, på Frederikssundsvej 77. Vi arbejder med kommunikationen mellem vores indre tilstand og det ydre, oparbejder energi og førløser blokeringer i vores dans. I den anden halvdel arbejder vi med at komme ind og ud løft med et mål udenfor kontaktpunktet.

Rajendra er bosat i San Francisco og arbejder bl.a. med Scott Wells. Hans barndom med sin far som argentisk bokser, har inspireret ham.

Judit Keri underviser søndag 7 aug, kl 12 - 17. på Frederikssundsvej 77. Vi oplever friheden i bevægelserne, gennem rull, åndedrat, fald og vægtoverføring. Fokuserer på nuet, at være tilstede og expandere med et fokus på hvor opmærksomheden er. Vi udforsker vores grænser og udvidger dem.

Judit Keri arbejder med dans, koreografi, teater, yoga og meditation. Hun rejser meget rundt i verden og er bosat i Wien.

vi ses ;)

Movement as Energy Alignment

Rajendra Goldpants

Movement as Energy Alignment with Rajendra
Tuesdays and Thursday, March 22 to April 28
10am-12pm
at The Yoga Loft
321 Divisadero (between Oak and Page)
$15 Suggested (Pay what you can)

This class will continue to explore movement as energy alignment. Dance can be both a catalyst to change our inner state and expression of our inner state. In this class we will practice attention to changing states. How can we let these states guide us in physical communication? We will start with simple exercises to raise sensitivity to our own energetic body, communication with both our own inner state and with other bodies. We will use improvisation, energy cultivation, physical alignment, and outerspacial movement as a means to discover our own dance as well as our physical habits and energetic blocks. We will play between the gravitational pulls of the earth and the energetic fields of our bodies.

This is part of a series of morning classes with Sara Shelton Mann and guest teachers, focusing on “movement as energy alignment.” Classes are informed by Sara’s energy movement work as well as the individual research of the teachers. Sara will return May 2 with classes Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, through May 26, and again Jun 6 to 30th.

 
 

Pre-Jam Class In Berkeley

Today i’ll be leading the pre-jam class in berkeley.

When: Saturday 12/11/2010. 1:30-3:00pm
Where: 8th Street Studio, Sawtooth Building, 2525 Eight St. (at Dwight), Berkeley, CA
Cost: $12 (or pay $15 and stay for the jam)

In this class we will practice Contact Improvisation in order to find a sublime union of two people moving together. Today we will focus on playing with simple shifts of weight. I’ve been meditating on the dynamic effects of using the weight of my distinct body parts and my partner’s to move in contact. Moving myself, moving my partner, allowing myself to be moved. Not just my whole body as a unit, but the nuance each bone, muscle and organ. The class will start with solo experimentation in locomotion then develop into duets and direct feedback, witnessing and becoming conscious of habits. This class is open to people with any amount of experience with Contact Improvisation.
