The dance material from Xenia Koghilaki’s work Slamming serves as a starting point for the workshop. Participants will revisit choreographic strategies where the space of the mosh pit at a concert can be explored not only as a site of extreme dancing, but also as a space of social cooperation, a site of corporeal and space negotiation. Starting with a physical warm up, we will move progressively around choreographic ideas such as trust exercises with lifts and sharing of weight and improvised scores. Previous experience working with movement is recommended, but not necessary.
The workshop is in collaboration with PRODA Vestland and Bergen Dansesenter – competence center for dance in Vestland.
