INTERPLAY _ KINAESTHESIA AND BODY STATES
TRAINING | WORKSHOPS | MASTERCLASSES
INTERPLAY and, as well, A HYBRID BODY (from a slightly different approach and angle) are trainings that through, open explorations as well as set material, dive into and play with varied physical, sensorial and kinetic qualities – subtle, cellular, activating the “internal” space, to big and spacious, flying through and eating space.
ABOUT
Interplay is a training exploring dynamic movement through all levels in space.
In this work we focuses on the soft but vital power of the body that can be found through it’s fluidity.
We want to expand and not harden. We travel organically in and out of the floor, dissolving that distinction and rather focusing on fluid pathways that travel through as well as in and out of our body, through the entire space and, at times, into the air.
INTERPLAY and, as well, A HYBRID BODY (from a slightly different approach and angle) are trainings that through open explorations as well as set material dive into and play with varied physical, sensorial and kinetic qualities; subtle, almost cellular, activating the “internal” space, to big and spacious, flying through and eating space.
Be it in the professional trainings or in the more open labs and workshops, my wish is to offer a playground and to create as well as hold the space to challenge ourselves with curiosity; to deep dive into the fluidity, agility and soft but energised power of our body.
“As much as I love the clarity of lines, this work is never about creating and rigid “shapes”. It focuses on weight and the stream of breath as generators of movement; on how to utilise these in an ongoing interplay between release, recovery and a conscious act of directing. In this work we explore ways to soften in order to expand, to activate and fully reconnect to our agile and powerful body.
The essence of this training is a research around the fluidity of the body, playing with release and weight and sequentiality, in an increasingly energetic / dynamic way throughout class. Released and available to be able to surfe and play with natural forces, riding an energetic stream and wave; learning to stop powering & making every movement happen muscularly. To allow motion & movement to happen, while still clearly directing & sending it. One central focus is alignment that allows movement to travel through the body. The training offers a playground to challenge and hopefully surprise ourselves.
Movement, be it floor work or standing material, is approached as directing and streaming an energetic flow, respecting a natural trajectory and alignment. This allows us to be energetic and, as well, to gain speed, if so wished, in the most enjoyable, efficient, organic as well as healthy way – be it in minimal or expanded movements flying through and eating the space.”
THE AIM
– to move in an organic, released while highly agile and energetic way, maintaining the space within and fluidity of the body.
– to start movement from different approaches.
– to surf movement as an energetic stream, based on release/falling, catching and sending movement.
– to be/come the master of this tool, our body and the timing, dynamic and musicality in which we perform a movement.
