A blissful vacation week with exciting interaction between bodywork, movement, play and dance, in which we get to know and feel our moving body better!

Step by step, we expand our view of our movement and imagination possibilities as human beings, movers and dancers. We start with movement research. A focus on a body part or a body layer or system. Once zoomed in, we zoom out again and again. We play, feel and dance. We discover what is beneficial, empowering, vitalizing and self-nurturing. Our dance language opens up and is nourished.

Our intuitive creativity deepens once we also add exercises that are more connected to the left side of our brain. A workout for your brain, but initiated from gentleness, with curiosity and most of all: lots of fun. We work individually and in pairs, using touch to understand the body in different ways and experience dance and movement in new, surprising ways.

Instructor Siri loves to dive into the different dimensions of the body through experience-oriented anatomy. With her background in contemporary dance, authentic movement, contact improvisation, dance therapy and Pilates, and inspired by practices such as Qi Gong and Ido Portal Method, Siri combines the concrete with the undefined, in a journey to meet our sources of creation.

Each day starts with a long morning session from a specific physical focus, in the studio or outside on location, individually or with a partner or in group. After a relaxing lunch and afternoon break, we deepen our experience of the morning with new perspectives. In the evening there is time for calmer bodywork, a walk in the beautiful surroundings of Blanchefosse or enjoying the wild garden surrounding the accomodation.

Practical

Bring clothes you can wear in layers and your own blanket, water bottle and yoga mat.

All meals and sleeping accomodations are included in the course price; you are responsible for your own transport.

The beds in multiple rooms are assigned based on the order in which registrations are received, not based on gender. Would you like to share a room with a specific person or is there anything else we should take into account when assigning the rooms? Make sure to mention it in the comment field when registering.

Please note: after you register for a vacation course, we first check whether your chosen accommodation (room type or camping) is still available at the vacation location. If so, you will receive a final confirmation from us. If your chosen accommodation is no longer available, we will of course let you know as well.
