Move Your Body – Move Your Mind
Want to feel the art of dance on your own body before going to the performance – Join a workshop with choreographer Helle Bach! Here you get an awakening of the senses and a fine-tuning of your listening device. Your mirror neurons are driven into position at the starting line and you’ll be ready for an extended experience of the evening’s performance.
The workshop will consist of a guided physical warm-up and specific exercises. Through both guided improvisations, simple movement sequences/choreographies and partner work, you will experience the different approaches to the body by dancing. This is a workshop where your senses get an introduction to the different ways that dance uses the body to tell a story.
The workshop is for you who would like to dive into dance as an expression by getting on the floor yourself. Or for you who just want to feel the joy in your moving body. All adults can participate, regardless of age. It does not matter whether you are a beginner or an experienced dancer.
