(English below) . Dansimprovisatie gebeurt hier en nu: je beweegt zoals je adem haalt. Wat zijn de gevolgen van een beweging? Wat kun je, wat wil je bereiken?

In deze cursus onderzoeken wij dansimprovisatie vanuit je eigen lichaam en je eigen mogelijkheden, steeds onderzoekend, luisterend. Elke beweging kan worden gebruikt, er is geen vaste stijl. Soms werk je in je eentje, soms samen met anderen. Gaandeweg ontstaat er een dans vanuit het moment. Hoe beweeg je verder? Wat wil je bereiken?

De benadering in deze cursus komt voort uit de ontwikkelingen en vindingen van de dans-pioniers Rudolf von Laban (Duitsland tot ca. 1950) en Elaine Summers (VS, vanaf 1960) Zij onderzochten ieder in hun tijd hoe je op een manier kunt bewegen die bij jou past, als uniek individu.

De groep is open voor beginners en gevorderden. Neem bij twijfel even contact op met de docent. Instromen na cursusbegin kan na overleg met de docent. . .

Dance improvisation happens just like breathing: you never think about it too much, it happens. What is the consequence of a movement? What can you do? What do you want to do?

In this course we explore dance improvisation from the individual body, the unique abilities of each participant. Any movement can be 'right', there is not a single style. Sometimes you explore on your own, sometimes with others. Gradually a dance emerges from the moment ... How do you continue?

The approach in this course on dance-improvisation comes mainly from dance pioneers Rudolf von Laban (Germany until ca. 1950s) and Elaine Summers (USA, 1960s and after) Each of them researched how you can find ways of moving that work for you as an individual and unique dancer.

The group is open for any levels of experience. When in doubt just contact the teacher in advance. Joining after the course has started can only happen after a consultation with the teacher.

Thomas' intensives really do facilitate a deepening of this profound self sensing capacity, that everyone possesses, whether or not they are aware of it yet. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who is interested in deepening their body-mind connection, and importantly, in acquiring tools and methods that will allow them to continue to do so.

I think it needs a whole day abling exploring the morning session.
