In this class, we will apply embodied anatomical knowledge to forms and patterns of movement stemming from ballet, modern and postmodern dance. When approaching these forms, we will not go through a process of mere reproduction; instead we will focus on physically and organically understanding the bodily mechanisms and relationships that underlie them.

Furthermore, you will work with using these known forms and patterns of movement for the sake of a somatic exploration. In this class, my intention is also to share with you the extensive body of knowledge I have had the chance to touch on within the field of somatic practices as well as through various dance techniques, including specific heritages from the French field of contemporary dance from the 90’s.

We will also incorporate specific aspects from Technosomatics, the dance practice I have created, which brings together an exploration of the endocrine system and the chakras by means of club dancing to techno with eyes closed.     

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