Become aware of and acquire new knowledge of what’s potentially available!\n\n 🍃For Contact Improvisers with some experience of CI fundamentals and wi th some experience in the basics of 'flying' and 'basing'. If you're not s ure if these workshop days are right for you\, please feel free to discuss it with me.\n\nEarly Bird Tickets available until 17th February 2025. Pla ces are limited to 25 participants\, so please book early to guarantee a p lace.\n\n2 helper places available &\; 2 supported bursary places avai lable. If you would like to be a helper in exchange for a greatly reduced- price place or if finance is a bar to participation\, please get in touch. \n\nWhat I’m offering:\n\n💫Over these two workshop days\, I will shar e detailed\, loosely choreographed movement pathways and patterns that g ive awareness of\, and train us in\, particular ways of moving and orienta ting. They are to delve into. We’ll start low to the ground and continue to the mid-range\, and up to fully standing. We’ll travel in unusual an d useful ways between these levels\, and through the space\, alone and tog ether.\n\nWe will move on to pathways and reference moves for: dynamically sharing weight\, inviting ‘flyers’\, and ‘airborne’ pathways onto \, across &\; around bodies.\n\nThere will be time to improvise\, holdi ng the patterns and paths as inspiration for adventures in CI.\n\n \;\ n\nA little context\n\nDeep listening and freely responding in the moment are at the heart of my CI practice. However\, I wouldn’t be half as free \, safe or aware of options without training with a wide range of movement pathways. I’m lucky to have acquired these loose choreographies over 25 years from great CI masters\, mistresses\, and fellow explorers.\n\nIn my own research\, working with and inspired by these pathways and patterns\, I discovered and developed my own training ‘choreographies’ for my ow n practice. I’ve now gathered some of them together for teaching Contact Improvisers with some experience\, and I’m still adding to and research ing the material. It’s an ongoing process of muses\, discovery\, and pla y. I’d like to share some of the fruits of this with you.\n\n\n\nLocatio n\nSt Michael's Parish Hall\, Bristol\, BS2 8BE\n\n \;\n\nBooking: htt ps://www.tickettailor.com/events/asherlevinevents/1482376 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://contactdance.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/20 24/12/flight.jpg CATEGORIES:CI Workshop LOCATION:St. Michael's Parish Hall\, Park Ln\, Bristol BS2 8BE\, Bristol\, BS2 8BE\, United Kingdom GEO:51.457;-2.59932 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Park Ln\, Bristol BS2 8BE\, Bristol\, BS2 8BE\, United Kingdom;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=St. Michael 's Parish Hall:geo:51.457,-2.59932 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:Europe/London X-LIC-LOCATION:Europe/London BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20241027T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0100 TZOFFSETTO:+0000 TZNAME:GMT END:STANDARD END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
