A contemporary approach using the basic movement principles of José Limón, in collaboration with technique and improvisation. Basic to complex exercises and movement exploration tasks will fine tune the senses and wake up the ability to listen and respond to what is happening at the moment. The class will investigate the usage of weight, space, and dynamics, while concentrating on alignment, musicality, focus, breath of the movement. The class will provide an environment for exploring different modes of learning and developing movement material, thus providing the body with an increased physical activity as the class proceeds.

Gabrielle Staiger’s class was originally designed as preparation for creative processes and aims at activating the „democratic body“ (a body capable of initiating movement from every part or surface of the body). The class begins on the floor, focusing on the spine and then becomes increasingly complex and technically demanding. A technical, kinetic and literally moving experience.

Gabrielle Staiger, freelance choreographer and teacher for contemporary dance technique, composition and Labanprinciples is a teacher very much in demand with leading dance companies like Ballet Preljocaj/Aix-en-Provence, Neuer Tanz/Düsseldorf, Ultima Vez/Brussels, Ballet de Marseille as well as leading education centres in Europe and overseas such as the Hogeschool vor de Kunsten in Amsterdam, the Rotterdamse Dansakademie and SungKyunKwan University in Seoul. For 12 years she directed ARAZZO Tanztheater, a Physical Theatre Company based in Cologne. Her artistic work has won numerous awards. She was educated at the Laban Centre in London and the German College of Physical Education in Cologne.

Apart from almost always being there – to rest upon, to balance, to push from, to gain speed, the floor is one of our first and lifelong teachers. Inviting us to feel ourselves through the feedback it offers to our structure, we will throughout the week find ways to listen to the proposed invitation and find different relationships to how and when.

This class aims to stimulate a continuous whole body movement awareness by applying some of the core principles from Cunningham Technique based on the unlimited potential of the body for temporal-spatial design.
During the week the class will evolve through complexity, playing all at once with Isolation patterns and Rhythm and Coordination of the limbs in the space through different combinations which will make use of sound and repetition differently. By allowing the participants to be continuously challenged to problem-solving, the dancing experience will result in an accurate sense of phrasing and mental strength which will reveal an ever-present quality.

The contemporary dance classes are based on floor work, sensation of light and heavy, push and pull principles. With these ideas we will enjoy different dynamic states. The observation of the condition of the own body, the rhythm of breathing and concentrating thoughts on being “here and now” is the main goal of the training.
