Please watch the video about Monica's teaching clicking the link below:
what do we do
Utilizing the principles of contact improvisation and body-mind practices, Monica's teaching focuses on areas such as; awareness of the body's organisation and anatomy; connection to the floor, the space and partner's; and sensing the weight and the flow of the breath into the body.
Confidence in receiving and giving (lifting, falling, momentum, suspension, weight, impetus) is built through suggested movement patterns and observing the singular expression of the body in motion
Moving from Within - dancing with the Surrounding
Dance improvisation, Instant Composition, Space Responsive Workshop
Moving with the surrounding from within. How the environment effects my movements how I can intervene on a landscape through my movement.
Location and Dates TBC
NATURA (ΦΥΣΗ) DanceLab movement - voice Retreat
Summer dance Lab in Nature
Expanding our senses, cultivating the attention, the observation and the search, we will explore the improvisation in solo, duos and groups. Voice, breath, easiness and letting go, connected to being grounded and centred while moving dynamically.
We will use the surrounding of the place we are to let our souls and bodies to express through movement and voice.
