London Movement Connections

I’m pleased to announce that Nuria Bowart will be co-teaching with Shira Yaziv for the I2M workshop in less than 2 weeks, over the weekend of 28-29th July. The I2M workshop was created by these two inspiring forces and we are very lucky that both will be in London at the same time to deliver over what will be a great weekend of movement, creation, playfulness, learning and a lot more I’m sure. To book your spot contact me directly or go through this link .... https://www.even...tbrite.co.uk/e/i2m-int ensive-with-shira-yaz…
Nuria Bowart is a dancer from the Bay Area of California. She has spent her life studying the arts of rhythm, improvisation and healing and has been sharing her understanding through performance and teaching throughout the world since 2000. Nuria teaches locally and internationally and likes to draw from the movement manual of the Axis Syllabus. Nuria is also known as Contramestra Marreta, a graduated student of the well respected Mestre Acordeon. Her teaching aims to bring her students into more detailed awareness and choice through a complex understanding of the body and the improvisation of life. Nuria has been teaching and performing with Shira Yaziv since 2008 and together they created i2m out of their shared interest and research around the intersection of solo and interactive improvisational movement.

London Movement Connections. Move - Play - Create - Connect. Thank you to all the teachers who helped me launch the concept featured in this vid, Lewis Wilkins, Maria Fonseca, Matt Mulligan Dan Edwardes & all that came after. Also, big thanks and love to the lovely people that have attended thus far, keep spreading the word. Class tonight 6:30pm with myself in Highgate woods https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/move-with- nature-weekly-tick… then @tripdance_tripspace tomorrow, 3pm, with Laura Lorenzi https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/london-mov ement-connections-… 🎬🎥 @b.h.smith

🍒It’s today we are back in tripspace, 3-5pm. Lewis Wilkins & Laura Lorenzi are facilitating 1 of 3 in the partnering/contact series - London Movement Connections: Partnering Series - £10 - @tripdance_tripspace
From Solo into partnering – working with light contact.
Drawing from Martial arts and other partnering techniques we will explore the possibilities of the connection between the upper and lower body through spiraling. We will focus on moving through the space with a p...artner while maintaining an awareness of our own dance.
Contact Improvisation – soft and strong
We will dedicate some time to work on techniques for lifting and weight exchange, looking at which muscle tone facilitates giving weight in different situations. We’ll bring awareness to the role of the ‘base’ finding freedom and comfort in supporting the partner. There will be an emphasis on creating a sensitive physical dialogue, enhancing the connection between the limbs and the centre of the body.
Trios and More – Grazing and Jamming Contact Improvisation can sometimes be mistaken for a practice that involves only two people at once. Often this can prevent us from enjoying dancing in a larger group. In this session we will work on techniques to work and experiment with configurations that are other than the duet. Aiming at finding an enjoyable and non-committal way of improvising within a group of people without feeling tied down to the first encounter on the dance floor or abandoned if our partner decides to move on from our duet. .
