ABOUT:

PRAXIS Praksis is a 3 day long 'morning sharing' where we have invited several dance artists who will hold a space in which they share their ways into dancing; this can be through their daily routine, a choreographic practice, or other approaches into moving that have inspired them.

Bring warm clothes and something to lay on!

The classes are 1.5 or 2 hours long starting at 09:30.

Each class is 50kr.

At KADI Studio

Doorbell 204 (Kadi Fever Dance).

2. Floor.

DESCRIPTION:

Undersøkelser.

Hvordan går det?

And I answer without being aware of how I actually walk. How do I balance out / relate to the situation? An inquiry and interest in one or more directions and levels of effort. Into the work of standing and walking. What happens? What do I experience? What do I sense being expressed in me and through me?

Balance.

A continuous exchange within me between will, bodily matter, gravity and the ground.

Functionality - support - transmission of power - transfer of weight / shift of weight - driving force – flexibility / elasticity – tension / contraction  - release / relief  - charge / discharge.

This has become an ongoing project where on a daily basis, (for the last 2-3 years) I continuously attempt to come in contact, with what it implies to tune in on daring to take the first step, for the first time, trying to walk into and towards

something unknown. What is present in me and how, now, now. now………………?

A rediscovery of experiencing.

Welcome!
