Embodying Time

Dance in the 4th dimension

"We can measure time, but this gives us no guarantee that we understand what time is." – Umberto Eco

Let alone understanding; let’s sense, reflect on and play together in & around time. Let’s see if we can define what it is, how it passes through our mind, our bodies and through space as we share it? Diving deep into the field of sensory experiences let’s work on grasping it, i.e. seeking ways of embodying time as we meet in the dance of 5 senses.
The flow of the intensive proposes:
- Sinking in our ‘skinesphere’s –to find out informed, liberated & sovereign places to move from
- Easing into a flow with explorations in the ‘kinesphere’ –to let go of our controlling mind and start trusting the playful mind & knowing body
- Allowing individual pathways to meet as we utilise different focuses and qualities of reading & listening physically

Improvising to trust our perception and movement qualities to be eventually informed then & there, in body time!
If you want to get lost in the 4th dimension of our dance, join in.
