Skinner Releasing Technique (Ongoing) & Imaginative Process – six days intensive into the Classes from the Ongoing Series with Lily Kiara.
Where: Ponderosa, (close to) Berlin, Germany
When: From 19th to 24th October (arrival on the 18th)
Deadline for applications: 13th of September, 2026
Imaginative Process
In the Ongoing series we may experience further through our dancing selves that there are skies beyond skies. It offers the possibility to have a deeper experiential understanding of what this may mean in our creative process, in ourselves, in our being.
At the end of each SRT class we allow time to write and/or draw. In this workshop there’s time for further discovery through what comes up in the writing, or in what has not yet been danced in class. Some dances come quickly, immediate, others ask for more uncovering. In the resonance of the Ongoing class we can play with allowing the mystery or to demystify some parts of the creative process. There can be moments of stillness, of dancing, of writing, drawing, of dancing together. There’ll be time for open space and also for gently guided sessions.
“To make something well is to give yourself to it, to seek wholeness, to follow spirit. To learn to make something well can take your whole life. It’s worth it.” – Ursula K. Le Guin
For who?
To participate in classes from the Ongoing series of SRT, prior experience of SRT is required: all 15 classes of the Introductory series, preferably multiple times. When you apply, please write about your experience with SRT to the contact listed below.
As the classes build on each other and with the desire to offer this experience at Ponderosa to a whole group from beginning to end, the workshop is open only to those who can participate the full 6 days, rather than in individual classes.
Skinner Releasing Technique (SRT) is a visionary approach to dance and movement training, developed by Joan Skinner (1924-2021); a detailed, refined and expansive technique. It is designed to find greater ease in our dancing and dynamic alignment with our environment. It is a refined tuning with ourselves, our bodies and imagination.
