Body-Mind-Presence Training
Contact Improvisation, Osteopathy and developmental movement
Ibiza 5.-11. of October 2010
with Daniel Werner and Mokshia R. Frenzel
Dear lovers of joyfull experiences in dance and bodywork,
in this Intensive we will explore early movement patterns and allow/reactivate connections in our nervous sytem for pleasurable being.
Two essential human needs as an embodied and sentient being are touch and the sensation/feeling to be carried and supported. The more natural the touch/contact is with whatever is carrying me (a body, a hand, the floor, water,...), the more effortless and joyful the movement on, into and out of this support will be. In a space of presence and sensuality we will explore the possibilty to let go of "old stories" and traumatic information in our cells. The released vital energy widens our inner spaces for perception and playfulness and may express itself in the lightness, ease and flow of our dances.
From there we will enjoy dancing Contact Improvisation, and also work technically and systematically on the principles of this wonderful danceform. The systematic approach will be based on the CI Training Program Berlin ( www.dancecontact.de ). In the technical training we will also work in smaller groups or even individually, so the Intenisve will offer tools and material for beginners and advanced dancers.
Furthermore this Intensive will include some "Best of Body-Mind-Presence" pearls. Body-Mind-Presence is playing and working with Contact Improvisation and elements of other contemporary dance forms, with osteopathy, Body-Mind Centering, developmental movement, singing and voice work, and flying yoga carpets called Omgym.

Daniel Werner
I teach CI since 1997, and love to continuously discover new dimensions of this amazing dance form on stage, in teaching and in the jam. My teaching is nurtured by the passion to systematically understand and categorize the underlying principles in CI. I studied contemporary dance at the North Karelia College in Finland and enjoy to work internationally as a dancer, choreographer and teacher. Essential influences for my work also come from Body-Mind Centering, Release-Techniques and Asian Movement Arts. Further I am involved in the following projects: www.dancecontact.de , www.contact-meets-contemporary.de , www.bide.be , www.osterimprofestival.info .
Mokshia
Improvisation artist on all levels and a body therapist (Osteopathy, Hawaiian Massage, BMC, TCM, Qi Gong), co-founder and organizer of the Easterimprofestival. …my therapeutical/artistic work is a synthesis of dance, music, body”work” (play) and satsang... There are many different membranes or gates to our essence. In a dance, song, or treatment, these membranes can become more permeable; gates can open easily and playfully. The cells simply remember their "original" goal: to communicate, to dance and to celebrate…"
