This workshop focuses on grounding, energy use, and body awareness through contemporary and African dance practices. Participants explore how strength is distributed throughout the body, how weight shifts, and how movement can become both efficient and expressive.
The workshop begins with simple mind-body exercises that encourage participants to connect with their physical state from within, shifting attention away from appearance and toward sensation. It creates space for participants to recognise how factors such as sleep, stress, and mental focus influence movement and physical capacity.
Through guided tasks, participants investigate tension and release, effort and ease, and the relationship between stability and mobility. Exercises include isolations, limitations, floor work, travelling sequences, and weight-shifting practices designed to challenge habitual movement patterns and increase adaptability.
Particular attention is given to the lower body and grounding principles inspired by African dance techniques, where the relationship to weight and the floor is central.
Workshop Level / Target GroupOpen to everyone. No prior dance experience required.
