SPECIAL FOCUS -- PHYSICS
By request, the weekend portion will have a special focus on the mechanics and technique of moving with another body... lift vocabulary and body organization for soft power, lightness, and easy availability for the physically unexpected. we look at weight sharing and off-balance movement into and out of the floor and look for the poetic play of physics and kinesthetic experience.
The aim will be for a weekend of exploration that is interestingly challenging for both novice and experienced contactors.
The retreat days continue from where we find ourselves on the weekend... going further into the mechanical explorations and integrating them into dances that take us into other dimensions of play.
