Description of opportunity:
COMPLEX SIMPLICITY
4-Day Contemporary Dance Intensive with Sita Ostheimer
Feel more. Force less. Get curious. Discover the freedom inside complexity.
Four days of guided improvisation and choreographic work exploring the relationship between instinct and precision, weight and release, rhythm and freedom.
At the heart of this practice is the exploration of pleasure, comfort and curiosity within our moving bodies. Developing a relationship with our own physicality that is attentive, trusting and playful, even within its complexity.
Each day begins with guided improvisation, exploring ways to soften habitual patterns, release unnecessary effort, awaken sensitivity and discover new pathways of movement. Moving between softness and power, control and surrender, we explore how a deeper connection to ourselves can open up greater freedom, physical availability and individual expression.
In the second part of each session, we bring these principles into choreographic material. Through complex rhythms, detailed physical textures and demanding movement sequences, we explore how to maintain sensitivity, pleasure and individuality within a set structure, allowing technical precision and instinctive expression to coexist.
Finding comfort without losing intensity. Pleasure without losing precision. Freedom within complexity.
An invitation to get lost while staying fully present. To listen, to take risks, to challenge yourself, to surprise yourself and to rediscover the joy of moving.
For professional and pre-professional dancers.
