Saturday CI Workshop: Trust Falling

November 15th

Acland Burghley, 14:30-19:00

Starting with letting go of tension as we lay on the floor so that we can connect to a sense of falling and being caught by the earth as a natural part of our life.

In this workshop, we will work on shifting our perception of falling as a mistake toward perceiving falling as an integrated part of our dancing to be enjoyed.

Falling with a partner and into a partners support will highlight trust and connection.

I will break down a few gentle falling manoeuvres so that they can be worked on in stages and dancers can engage at their own level of challenge.

There will be time for free dancing and exploration. As always with my workshops, you can choose your own level of challenge. Technical study will evolve into free Contact Dancing, where we can explore and integrate new learnings into improvisation.

This work is about facilitating dancers in taking ownership of skills that support them in being safe and brave. This workshop is open to all.
