Choiring: Kören som huvudroll

Roten till ordet ”koreo” i koreografi sägs vara ”chorus” eller ”choreo” som bland annat har översatts till ”sjungande och dansande kör”, kopplat till ordet för refräng, korus: en sång att sjungas av en stor grupp eller en del av en sång där alla stämmer in. Förslaget för den här workshopen är att utifrån ett koreografiskt och musikaliskt perspektiv undersöka lyssnande, röst och rörelse i grupp. Utgångspunkterna för workshopen är att hörseln till skillnad från synen kopplar ihop mer än separerar. 

Workshopen vänder sig till korister och dansare. Med inspiration i körsång, kulning och vokala- och lyssningspraktiker utvecklade av bland andra kompositören Pauline Oliveros, kommer vi börja med en röstuppvärmning och sen utforska lyssnande, rörelsen, sång och ljudande i några olika övningar, ledda experiment och instruktioner. I en del uppgifter kommer vi arbeta i mörker eller med slutna ögon för att se hur eller om det ändrar hur vi lyssnar och rör oss, men det går alltid bra att titta istället om det känns obekvämt och dessa uppgifter kommer inte inkludera någon fysisk beröring. 

Materialet i workshopen är delvis framarbetat från föreställningen DUNKA DUNKA: ett koreografiskt verk med körsång och dans för en liggande publik och Shane et al. som utforskade kören som huvudroll medelst bland annat körsång och kamouflage. Workshopen är gratis. Kontakta gärna workshop ansvarig Ellen Söderhult om du har några frågor om workshopen.

Choiring_ the choir as protagonist

The root of the work ”choreo” in choreography is said to be ”chorus” or ”choreo” which sometimes has been translated to ”a singing and dancing chorus”, connected to the word for refrain, chorus: a song to be sung by a large group or a part of a song where everybody sings along. The proposal for this workshop is to from a choreographic and musical perspective explore listening, voice and movement in group. The starting point for the workshop is that hearing in contrast to seeing connects things rather than separate. 

The workshop is directed to choir singers and dancers. With inspiration in choir singing, herding calling (kulning in Swedish) and vocal- and listening practices developed by amongst others Pauline Olivers, we will start with a led vocal warm-up and then explore listening, movement, sound-making and singing in some exercises, led experiments and instructions. In some exercises we will work in darkness or with closed eyes in order to see how it might change how we listen and move, but it is always ok to choose to have eyes open instead and these exercises will not include any physical contact. 

The material of the workshop is partly developed from the performance DUNKA DUNKA, a choreographic work with choir singing and dancing for a lying down audience and Shane et al. which was a dance performance investigating the choir as protagonist through choir singing and camouflage . The workshop is free or charge and you are welcome to contact the workshop responsible Ellen Söderhult if you have any questions.

About Gaga

Gaga is the movement language developed by Ohad Naharin throughout many years, parallel to his work as a choreographer and artistic director (1990-2018) of Batsheva Dance Company. 

Gaga classes are predicated on a deep listening to the body and to physical sensations. The instructions are deployed to increase awareness of and further amplify sensation, information is layered, building into a multisensory, physically challenging experience. While many instructions are imbued with rich imagery, the research of Gaga is fundamentally physical, insisting on a specific process of embodiment. Gaga provides a framework for discovering and strengthening the body and adding flexibility, stamina, agility, and skills including coordination and efficiency while stimulating the senses and imagination. 

Gaga/people classes offer a framework for users to connect to their bodies and imaginations, experience physical sensations, improve their flexibility and stamina, exercise their agility and explosive power, and enjoy the pleasure of movement in a welcoming, accepting atmosphere.

Gaga/people classes are open to people ages 16+, regardless of their background in dance or movement. No previous dance experience is needed.

Somatic Oriented Movement Attunement with  Gaetano Badalamenti.

Workshop:

"We  we will work on warming up both body and voice through different exercises, a strong focus is on rhythmical work as well as how to connect the sound and a movement in a one-on-one manner in order to create an instrument with your body. We will work particularly with grounding and groove, finding ways to access a physicality that is both laid back and rhythmically tight. This will be done through the help of music and different somatic tools. 

Furthermore we will focus on polyrhythm, syncopation and synthesis. You will learn how to jam with polyrhythmic patterns, played out with both body and voice. We will work with rhythmical syncopation, creating a way of perceiving our dance as a rhythmical thing, as an ever-varying division of time in terms of rhythm. Finally, synthesis has to do with working on a detail level; making slight changes in tonus, tone, speed, intensity etc in order to make change really matter and to open up both your own and eventually the audiences ability to perceive more and come closer to the dance. "

Sparkling Imagination 

“The inflexibility of the established paralyzes the movement, dims the ingenuity, casts a shadow over surprise.

But life force makes us adaptable, it gives us the opportunity to transform space and to translate energy into

matter, matter into its own evolution. The outline of the spontaneous is blurred to disappear, the margins of

the predictable are softened and we know the interrogation point that questions the automatic response. The

body allows us to transcend.”

Horacio proposes a highly physical work that demands attention, interest and intensity rather than a certain

technique level, challenging the potentiality of each dancer to push the limits of body imagination and

expression further to discover new and surprising possibilities.

The workshop evolves with what the group offers, as the ability to create and compose physically need

training and attention as well as technique or style. Through the group process the participants learn from

each other through acceptance and transformation, collaboration and observation of their own dance and of

the whole group.

Let’s dive into the work, get the engines started and let the imagination flow! Let’s dance!

Morning class

Flying Low - Technical class

This work focuses mainly on the dancer’s relationship with the floor. The class consists in partnering work and

movement phrases, which explore the primary laws of physics: cohesion and expansion.

Simple movement patterns that involve breathing, speed and the release of energy throughout the body

activate the relationship between the center and the joints, moving in and out of the ground more efficiently

maintaining a centered state. The focus on the skeletal structure helps to improve the dancers’ physical

perception and alertness.

The technique was developped by David Zambrano, with whom Horacio has been working for more than 19

years. They continue to develop it and to exchange on all levels of dance work.

BIO:

name. Horacio Macuacua develops projects that aim to go beyond established forms. Flexibility of mind

and availability to catch the moment translate movement instantly into compositions that are complex and

elaborated, displaying depth and playfulness, darkness and light. Each composition is a journey to reinvent

and transform within the parameters of meaning.

He has carried out his projects: COMUM, Canais, Orobroy, Stop! (1st Prize and Puma Creative Prize at Danse

l’Afrique Danse Festival 2010), Smile If You Can!, Fighting room, Convoy, Paradise is not in the sky! and Theka.

Morning class

What is there, already?

Rosalind will share her processes for remembering the materiality of the body, with helpful ways to be with the flesh, weight, breath, edges, contents... 

How to stay interested? 

From the beginning, a raft of compositional tools will be drawn on - simple, playful ways to respond to this materiality such as: following one piece of flesh at a time, prolonging/inhibiting, accelerating/decelerating, thickening/weakening, etc.. and combinations of contrasting/complimentary tools.

WORKSHOP

Live composition for performance 

Where am I now?

The aim is to switch compositional awareness on, from the start, not later after one has 'warmed up'. If we want to compose now, then surely we need to start practicing composing now. We are already somewhere. 

Who's watching?

Performing is a practice that proffers its own feedback to the artist. How do we stoke the naked conviction required to dance in-full-view?

Rosalind's principles and practical tools offer concrete ways to navigate between felt sensation, compositional clarity and vivid imagination; to shift one's focus between making movement and following movement; and to draw power as a performer from the event of being watched. Her method strengthens solo performing practice and equips dancing artists to sustain and take pleasure in an independent, embodied inquiry.

Rosalind Crisp has formed, reformed, accumulated and questioned her dancing knowledge over 40-years of studio research and live performance work. She has developed a method to undo those habits left by training and those that continually re-emerge from repetitive practices. The foundational terrain of her work is her aesthetic and technical preference for a 'released' body and her plethora of standard, bent and invented compositional tools.

From Feldenkrais towards Dance

Choreographer, performer, educator and Feldenkrais practitioner Antoinette Helbing shares her approach towards using the Feldenkrais method as point of departure for movement practice. Creating situations where the concrete meets the poetic - where the spheres of sensation and imagination meet, collide and intertwine.

Each session will start with a Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement (ATM) lesson. 

ATM lessons are one of the two teaching formats of the somatic learning method Feldenkrais - which practices embodied self-reflection through movement. The method has a non-goal approach - inviting for playfulness and curiosity. No specific result is expected to be reached by the end of the lesson - the one and only purpose is developing a more nuanced awareness of the execution of basic movements - which is surprisingly complex. 

The participants explore basic movement patterns in unfamiliar configurations - observing and unravelling patterns of movement, thought, emotion and action. Seeking pleasure and giving time. The participants are encouraged to acknowledge and welcome their current level of ability, to let go of unnecessary effort and to practise care and softness towards themselves.

Subsequently, the sessions glides into a guided movement meditation - using the sharpened awareness gained from the ATM to allow new sensations, unfamiliar pathways and unexpected qualities to evolve. Those guided movement meditations take point of departure in imaginative and speculative bodily situations, in text, in anatomical discoverings, etc. Exploring different ways of unifying the sensorial input of the own body in movement with the external ideas and concepts. Letting those two sources of information - the subjective experience and the choreographic notion - collide, intertwine and co-exist. 

Central to the session is the wish to foster playfulness, joyfulness, imagination, fantasy, curiosity, ease and freedom. Embracing confusion, collision of ideas, meeting the place of not knowing and the uncanny – A practice of decomposing patterns to unlock the potential of moving beyond preconceived ideas that increases the ability to think outside of the box, to enter the unknown and uncertain and ultimately can increase the freedom of movement.

"Oppositions, gravity, connections, fluidity and density, impulses and instincts, muscle release work, infinite spirals (with a particular focus on the movement of the spine) will flow through the body during a class based on the techniques of Release, Floorwork, Partnering, Improvisation. 

The class combines articulation and disarticulation, both through the study of technical sequences or through moments of guided improvisation combined with partnering work. 

Partnering and contact improvisation work allows you to gain confidence with others, to respect their spaces, welcome, use dynamics that arise spontaneously in order to then be able to observe their evolution."

"Guided by trans* dancer and choreographer alex blum, we invite you to join a workshop for the speculative exploration of queer movements and ephemeral memorials. We will be working with the archives of Nordic queer liberation, for instance the history of the Danish Gay Liberation Front and their activism against the so-called ‘Dance Ban’, which for decades forbade same-sex couples from dancing together in the public sphere. 

Through touch-based body work, improvisation, collective mind-mapping and critical fabulation, we’ll embody a research of the queer potentials and politics of the dancing body. Everybody is welcome, but this is a space meant to celebrate lived experiences of queerness and transness, so show up with an intention to amplify queer joy."

Varmt välkomna till en kostnadsfri inspirationsworkshop

för dansare och övriga intresserade i att leda

Allt hänger samman metoden!

Metoden Allt hänger samman är ett kreativt sätt att lära sig om arkitektur som

främjar ett kroppsbaserat lärande med reflektion och rörelse i fokus. 

Metoden är utformad för elever i mellan- och högstadiet och erbjuds även som skapande skola projekt 

som vänder sig till grundskolan, konstmuseer, konsthallar och liknande.

Projektet Allt hänger samman handlar om att förstå och uppleva

världen vi lever i - via arkitektur, dans och koreografi.

Allt hänger sammans första inspirationsworkshop

Vi ser fram emot att göra den första inspirationsworkshopen i att leda Allt hänger

samman metoden. Under workshopen kommer vi att prova på och testa olika

arbetssätt och övningar som metoden grundar sig på. Du kommer att få vägled-

ning för att förstå metodens helhetstänk utifrån tesen att allt hänger samman,

samt gott om tid för samtal och reflektion. När workshopen är över hoppas vi att

du känner dig inspirerad och trygg i att leda Allt hänger samman metoden på ditt

sätt, utifrån metodens upplägg och din yrkesskicklighet!

Var med i uppstarten för att sprida och arbeta med metoden

Projektet Allt hänger samman har sedan 2022 utvecklat metoderna för grundsko-

lan. Det finns nu ett antal byggstenar som metoden utgår ifrån och som tydliggör

temat och tesen om att allt hänger samman. Nu startar vi utformningen för att

sprida metoden nationellt vilket öppnar upp möjligheter för dansare, arkitekter och

konstnärer från olika discipliner i hela landet att delta.

Ett led i detta arbete är att bjuda in till inspirationsworkshops samt möjligheten att

ingå i ett nätverk för de som är intresserade av att i framtiden leda metoden.

Om metoden

Allt hänger samman utvecklar ett ämnesövergripande metodmaterial för hur

grundskoleelever kan lära sig om arkitektur genom att utforska sin egen

skolbyggnad. Samtidigt lär de sig att reflektera över hur världen, samhället och

den egna kroppen hänger ihop med den byggda världen.

Syftet med metoden är att introducera arkitektur på ett kreativt sätt, samt att

skapa nyfikenhet hos eleverna, både på sin egen närmiljö och vår gemensamma

gestaltade livsmiljö. Metoden syftar också till att öka förmågan att tänka i större

perspektiv och förstå komplexa sammanhang. I centrum står ett kroppsbaserat

lärande, med fokus på rörelse. Metoden är tillgänglig på vår webbsida för lärare

över hela landet.

Workshopen leds av dansare och koreograf Ulrika Blåeld Wedin,

eventuellt tillsammans med ytterligare en kollega från Allt hänger samman.

EMBODIED AWARENESS

Hur kan vi omfamna och lära känna våra sinneskroppar? En workshop med koreografen Helena Franzén

I workshopen fokuserar vi på olika metoder hur man identifierar nya lager av förståelse - hur en rörelse förkroppsligas hos en dansare… 

Med vägledning av både improviserat och koreograferat rörelsematerial upptäcker vi den fantasifulla, rumsliga och energifyllda kroppen.

I denna praktik omfamnar vi detaljer i rörelse kvaliteter, hur man spårar den sensoriska intelligens som kroppen som helhet tillhandahåller.

Workshopen inbjuder till nyfikenhet och glädje att dela dansandet tillsammans!

En workshop i samarbete med Danscentrum Syd.

"The aim is to encourage participants to rediscover their sense of off-balance, and thereby expand their range of movement. By playing with balance primarily in partnering, participants acquire the ability to respond sensitively by delicate movements. Movements created using this method have the potential to evoke emotions not only in the viewer, but also in the person making the move."

We take time to slow down to sense the materiality of your body. We practice deep listening and dive into your inverted ocean and bony landscapes to allow your tissues to soften and re-pattern in order to activate unknown and new movement pathways. Through fine-tuning our perceptions we discover new spaces and sensations. In slowing down to sense the precise detail, intelligence and archive of your tissues, organs, bones and fluids there is endless potential for movement and expression. The discoveries in the subtleties we integrate with outer sensory perception, relating to both the more-than-human and other moving bodies in space. As space opens we allow the dance to unfold and bring in speed, largeness, your own dance archive and perhaps strangeness and the unexpected.

We will each day go into a different structure within the body (such as lungs/ribs, pelvis, spine, skull and limbs) through touch and hands-on partnering, imagery, verbal poetic guidance, experiential anatomy and improvisation. There will be time for writing and reflection.

Underlying ideas within the methods offered is letting go of judgment, being in a state of non-doing/non-endgaining, omni-directionality, learning through self-discovery, being in the unknown and both embodying your subjectivity as well as letting go of it. We practice paradoxes, such as autonomy and bodily agency, collectivity and co-existence.

The practice offered is influenced mainly by Tuva Hildebrands mentor-apprentice relationship with Eva Karczag (original dancer for Trisha Brown, Alexander Technique teacher, Body-Mind Centering, Tai Ji, Qi Gong, Improvisation), but also her background in Skinner Releasing Technique/Open Source Forms, Body-Mind Centering, Alexander Technique and working with teachers, improvisers and dancers such as Stephanie Skura, K.J. Holmes and many more within the post-Judson scene in New York.

"Are you listening or waiting to move? As a researcher within improvisational forms and methods from different somatic practices I am curious about the non-violent practice of relating through listening and moving. I am interested in the idea of ecosomatics; to extend our awareness beyond the ecosystem of our own body to the larger ecosystem in which we are connected to as just a tiny particle. We are touching and being touched, forming and being formed, moving the world and being moved by the world all the time. I am interested in the power of language and states beyond it; in the experiences we carry that are too large to fit into a normative narrative; to move in the glitch, in a state of ”strangeness”, in that which cannot be comprehended. Then we return to language again with a new perception of its content. I ask the question ”what if I can re-write myself into the world through sensing and moving?”. Also, biology is political. So is how we move.” - Tuva Hildebrand
