Bregenz

Two workshops: SKINNER RELEASING TECHNIQUE & INSTANT COMPOSITION
with Bettina Neuhaus
organized by Tanzufer Bregenz

These two workshops give an insight into how SRT can be used for developing choreographic material and as a starting point for improvisation. Both are open to anyone who would like to discover and deepen their capacities in dance and composition.

5 - 7 March 2010: Dance Perspectives
Applying the different SRT principles to balances, jumps, turns and other movement vocabulary lead to fascinating dance phrases. Becoming aware of the breath and the relationship between gravity and our dynamic alignment allows transparency and musicality to enter our dance. In this seminar the SRT principles stimulate the development of our technical skills and help refine our compositional abilities as we choreograph sequences and other material.

13 - 15 March 2010: Intuition and Improvisation
This workshop focuses on the dynamic relationship between spine, torso, pelvis and the extremities. Using these structures more consciously leads us to the essence of each movement and our dance gains clarity and significance. Responding directly to our intuition and the wisdom of the body creates exciting compositions, in which we can act on inner and outer impulses with alertness and readiness.

Venue: Kolpinghaus Bregenz, Austria
Fee in Euros:160 for single workshop
Fee in Euros:280 for both workshops
Schedule: Friday: 19:00-22:00; Saturday & Sunday: 10:00-16:00

Please sign up before 15 February 2010!

Skinner Releasing is a movement practice that facilitates the discovery of creative movement, natural grace, imagination and transformative states. Partner studies and guided poetic imagery foster the releasing of hidden tension patterns and triggers spontaneous improvised movement.
