EMBODIMENT - SPACE - MOVEMENT
In these two-hour sessions towards the end of Novermber, we explore the territory of somatic practices and ecological embodiment through space-responsive dance and improvisation, deepening our connection with our body-mind and the environment. We use visualization, touch, body-work, sensory awareness to observe our relationship with gravity and listening our anatomical structures, body systems and the space. Through the lens of embodiment we generate space for individual movement exploration and collective creation with the environment.
Saturday 23th and Sunday 24th November
2 pm - 4 pm
@ The Salisbury Centre (GARDEN/STUDIO)
2 Salisbury Rd, EH16 5AB.
In the first part of the session :
We focus on body ecology, perceiving and moving while listening to our inner rhythms (breath, fluids) and responding to our surroundings. We observe the relationships between movement and stillness, extension and centering, support and mobility.
In the second part: We shift our attention to collective creative practice and open up to the playfulness and poetry of composing with the space—a place to duel with our visions and curiosity!
Weather permitting, we engage with he vibrancy of the outdoors, sharing our dances with the wonderfully nurturing Salisbury garden.

The schedule may adjust according to the group's needs and the weather.
Everyone is very welcome!
