Sigrid Stigsdatter
Addictive Dancing

For these morning classes we will dive into Sigrid’s physical practice Addictive Dancing.

Addictive Dancing is a term I use for a physical practice entailing soothing, vibrating, resonating movements that are rhythmical, repeating, looping and that over time when practiced becomes extremely addictive.

Addictive dancing builds on undulation, waving, swaying, rocking, grinding, stepping and jumping patterns that will work as a starting point and score from where OMG moments appear and we can build compositions and develop small performative situations and constellations together.

We start everyday with a warm up, we will work with touch at times to get a deeper understanding of the addictive movements and we will vary between set and open scores to explore addictive dancing and the compositional and choreographic potential of it.

Bring a notebook and water.

The classes are held at Dansehallerne, Franciska Clausens Plads 27, DK-1799 Copenhagen V, in Studio 3.
