BERLIN CONTACT TANGO MINI FESTIVAL
with Emi Farashi & Javier Cura
October 3–5, 2025 | Reunification Day Special
Unification in Times of Division: From Chaos to Connection
On the weekend of Reunification Day, we invite you to a journey of weaving together the East and West within us, the feminine and masculine energies, the inside and the outside, the visible and the hidden.
In an age where the world often frames things as “one against the other,” we will meet through movement and connection to embrace complexity — transforming both the inner conflicts we carry and the outer tensions we witness.
Here, beauty is not a performance — it’s the courage to be messy, to welcome chaos, to let mistakes open doors to new patterns and unexpected encounters. We will move beyond the injunction to “look beautiful” and instead celebrate the truth, complexity, and aliveness that emerge when we listen deeply to ourselves and to each other.
AN ENCOUNTER WITH YOUR INNER POETRY- Emi Farashi
Emi will guide an exploration of the Argentinian Tango walk as a doorway to sensing space and the other with subtlety.
We will enrich this dense, intimate embrace with tools from Contemporary Dance and Gaga, inviting imagination and creative freedom to infuse the experience.
A dance of Presence, Play, and Permission — rooted in listening to the body, to rhythm, and to pleasure.
Centred on consent, expression, and authentic connection.
BRINGING TOGETHER THE WILD AND THE SUBTLE - Javier Cura
As we explore animal movements, conscious touch, somatic awareness, physical relations and imagery, we can reveal the seeds of our healing and growth that lie in the connection with our physical emotional body.
We will bring in this awakened possibilities into a mix of Contact impro & Tango.
This mix will expand the sensorial awareness of ourself and others, allowing our creativity to emerge from a playful physical grounding.
This open combination, boundless of a given style, developed in a joyful environment, provides the possibility to deepen the understanding of ourselves and our physical, emotional relation with society and Nature.
FOR WHOM:
This workshop is a « rendez-vous » with yourself — blending technique and sensoriality, precision and simplicity. It’s open to people of all ages and experiences interested in movement creation as a path of knowledge, healing, communication and personal enrichment.
