“Dance...”

with Ingo Reulecke

The dance theater of  the 21st century developed a huge variety of possibilities.

To enter towards an available, released and present body, we use principles of Alexander Technique and Susan Klein to warm up. The invitation of momentum and gravity, space and time into the process of digging into the body/mind-connection supports us to perform with all our senses. As well I'd like to work with performance aspects by engaging the senses and trying to help softening patterns.

“Performance Theatre”

„Live is what happens while you are busy making other plans”
(J. Lennon)

Diving into the unknown through being and expressing the moment. In Performance Theatre we are exploring the empty space using movement and speech, working from solo to group performance, playing both comedy and drama.

How to express myself? What is stopping me being a ‘authentic’ player, what is the difference between ‘showing’ and ‘being’ on stage? How to create theatre, being an artist in a joyful, respectful and healthy way?

These questions were popping up starting my theatre work 1992 and becoming my friendly sometimes enervating companions since then until today. Through Franki Andersons work of BEING A FOOL I explored an artist way feeding my creativity from a holistic perspective. In Theatre Improvisation being present on stage means for me being able to express what the moment means to me, being clearly in contact with me and the audience. Using the word ‘holistic’ intends for me the present of many inner ‘masks’ being part of myself in one single moment. Being able to separate these masks and putting them on stage in a playful manner is feeding my players performance in a foolish way.

Finding the freedom, trust and courage of choosing my own masks to play leads me personally and theatrically toward a playfool und content life.

“On the Way Home”

Music and Dance

Instructed by Orly Portal

Music and dance are tools that enable us to learn the way to freedom – a state in which a person ceases to perceive oneself as separate from the whole, and become liberated from the need to be someone or something. In the core of that experience lays the realization that there’s one source to all.

In this experiential intensive, we will stop and listen. We will explore who we are not, and peel off. We’ll let movement lead our body, and become a musical instrument that plays by itself. Through sound and movement we’ll create opportunities to experience freedom, and through practice and dialogue we’ll establish a language with which we’ll expand the understanding and get acquainted with the path that leads to that experience.

„BodyStories“

painting, dance and poetry

In the dynamic interplay between dance, drawing and poetry we can express the stories which are imprinted in our bodies.

Moving with consciousness and intention allows us to shape and deepen our personal material. So we bring our life force into flow and improve our performance skills.

Participants are invited to take new risks with their personal material and art.
