These classes take place in close collaboration with Danish Dance Theatre, and we are happy to be able to offer the classes in the Danish Dance Theatres studio. In this case, the studio is at the Opera, Ekvipagemestervej 10, 1438 Copenhagen K.
Through a variety of perspectives, this movement methodology investigates the agility of the body in its movement in and through space.
The methodology builds on understanding agility as the most efficient mode to use the skeletal structure in relation to musculature and gravity.
We investigate the asymmetries of the body, the majority of which exist within the spine, more specifically in the relationship between skull, ribcage and pelvis.
We investigate the support and distributions of weight in order to find an inertia produced by the relation between forces and counterweights.
We work with the possibility of perceiving space as infinitely open, vast and three-dimensional, a place where the body will move.
The basis of this methodology is observing what happens when we place ourselves in relation to different materials (observing what happens in one’s own body and the bodies of others). From there we use deduction to incorporate and learn from both the individual’s and the group’s experiences. In this way, we aim to understand the experience of dance as pleasure produced in the moment of discovery.
Location? the Opera, Ekvipagemestervej 10, 1438 Copenhagen.
When you arrive to the Opera, please go to the stage entrance, a big grey sliding door, and enter the reception. We kindly ask you to be there no later than 15 minutes before the class. In this way, you’ll have time to register in the reception with your name on the screen and find your way up to the studio.
