Profitraining Ballett

Lets dance! Vom 24. – 27. Dezember 2013 vertrete ich Chizu Kimuras Profitraining in Berlin –Prenzlauerberg.

Daten: 24. – 27.12.2013
Uhrzeit: 12.-13.30 h
Wo: Center of Dance Directions
In der ‘Kulturbrauerei’, Schönhauseralle 36, 10435 Berlin, U–Bhf Eberswalderstr

Wie wir Tanzbewegungen reflektieren und sie verstehen bestimmt unseren Tanz und die Technik selbst. In diesem Kurs können grundlegende Kenntnisse des klassischen Systems aufgefrischt und erweitert werden. Wir lernen Tanzanatomie vor einem physiotherapeutischen Hintergrund kennen, und legen den Fokus auf effizientes Alignment, Atmung und was dem eigenen Körper gut tut. Auf dieser Basis versuchen wir zu den extremen Ufern dieser Technik vordringen, diese Grenzen tänzerisch abzutasten und den Körper positiv zu strapazieren. Musikalisch tausche ich den Klavierkontext in einigen Übungen aus, und freue mich auf kompositorische Bewegungsflüsse, und eine kollektive Eroberung des Raums!

Since autumn we worked out how to bring the Ebi – Figur to suspension. It took  us about three workshop sessions, but this time it worked for four people, who reached flying enlightenment in cross legged position. The image below is just half the preparation for it, here with the pretty ropes from Arisue Go.

Yoga & Shibari Workshops // July 19-27 // Vienna

What is Yoga & Shibari?

The workshop combines yoga and the Japanese rope technique ‘Shibari’. First, we do yoga to develop a sense of our own body anatomy; the simultaneous perception of one’s own breathing and bodymap is therefore important. In doing so, we can better empathise with another body while in the play of rope. In some asanas (yoga postures) ropes are integrated, or we tie ourselves from the start and do yoga while in a foot or breast-harness. The touch of the material helps clarify one’s investigation of the posture, and mixes the sensual and manual skills of bodies and ropes.

In the second part we come to mix different rope techniques and stir things up. For Shibari figure technique, we are guided by the precision and acrobatic art of Osada Steve, while Arisue Go’s philosophy is particularly suitable for beginners and can give impetus to explore one’s own ideas,

We ourselves have developed in recent years, a technique that we call messy tying. Traditional elements are retained here and combined with improvisation principles; the apparent order in the inner chaos is a kind of punk bondage! We also work with a feminist attitude towards Shibari: if porn, then please be sure to view a feminist porn! Everyone ties everyone, and male bodies captivated and tied is also sexy! For neat and clean tying and rope work in these workshops, we will also be covering the basic knots, fundamentals for breast-harness, and suspension and safety principles.

In pair or group situations in which we develop a bodily conversation, we see expressions of queer, grotesque or purely abstract play language. This may create relaxing and sometimes uninterpretable compositions of sensory stimuli, or also symbolically charged moments. We work here as well with methods drawn from dance and contact improvisation, and elements from role-playing games.

Since the level of the participants in yoga, games, and rope-work are always different, we work from the first on the level of personal experience. We also always give individual instructions.
