  • Class information

    Creative Embodiment is a  contemporary dance class in which we start from exploration and flow towards frase work, while focussing on awakening, applying and expanding multisensory and somatic awareness. We connect to the body as a whole, rhythm and our own imagination, while challenging our stamina. Within the style transcending dance material we focus on the fluidity and circularity of movement through the torso, the pelvis as the connection between your upper and lower body and the relationship between your legs and the earth. The material is a frame in which we apply the previous movement research and other exercises,  while finding a collective timing.


    This is a process-oriented and non-judgmental class, in which your personal creative development and embodiment is emphasised. Ongoing assignments and exercises ensure a natural and dynamic build-up of intensity from start to finish. You will be invited to explore and express the physical, emotional and energetic body through childlike playfulness. Creative Embodiment is a journey during which we open all the senses and experience our three-dimensionality. This dance class will/can be accompanied by (live) music and (live) sounds that stimulate your senses and help you ground.
