Rahel’s class draws from her own movement research, her experience in Body-Mind Centering and Aikido. She investigates the different movement qualities of the body’s physiological systems focusing on the volume/support of the organs and the connection of the centre to extremities and space. Rahel works with developmental patterns leading to phrases on the floor as well as standing, using a combination of set material and improvisation.

Release Based Class
Time:
10:00am - 12:00pm
Description:
The class will start with a movement
exploration inspired by the Feldenkrais method. We will go on to work
in solo and in group with exercises that encourage our ability to make
compositional decisions, particularly to be aware of how our movement
relates to the space. We will develop our capacity to listen, to look
and to perceive what is happening and find the moment to make a choice.

Going and Returning Across Bridges. Going and returning across bridges is the way the nervous system navigates its two longings in the terrain of gravity. The longing for ground and the longing for space. Articulations are bridges and we will use them as a frame to better under stand and to deepen our Yoga Practice. We go and we return across the spaces of the body -- and the spaces, the articulations, can be bridges rather than potholes that we fall into. The spaces are information and they can be bliss.

Class aims to support each individual in the deepening of their experience within movement, through the use of experiential anatomy, imagery and Franklin® Balls. Movement sequences will explore the intricacy of connections that enable ease of motion, relishing detail and counterbalance and the effortlessly dynamic physicality this can create.

Intensives
Time:
10:00am - 4:00pm
Description:
Led by company members Karen Christopher, Bryan Saner, Litó Walkey. The idea of response has become very important to the culture of Goat Island’s teaching. In workshops, each presentation of work is met with some kind of artistic response: a work of art that could not have existed without the work it is responding to. These responses are individual contributions to a conversation that stretches throughout the week. In this way work begets more work and all of the work is inextricably linked. This practice destabilizes the boundaries between critical and creative modes in order to enrich them both. The Goat Island workshop aims to provide an opportunity for artists to work and study together in a structured, creative environment. Participants are invited from the visual arts (including video, architecture, and other forms of visual/spatial/ durational expression), live and performance art, music, dance, and theatre. Disciplines of performance, installation, writing, movement, music, research, publication and documentation are examined in various forms and combinations dictated by the interests of the participants as well as those of the instructors. Sessions combine theory and practice, investigating forms of thought and presentation, styles of collaboration, historical and philosophical perspectives and methods of individual and collective expression and creativity. The emphasis of the workshop is on the development and encouragement of new theory and practice in art/performance.
Participants should bring notebook and pen/pencil and should wear comfortable clothes. £70/£50/£40 conc. Bookings open 31 March.

Description:
Skinner Releasing Technique is the pioneering and inclusive approach to dancing that has evolved from the simple principle that when we are releasing tension and habitual holding patterns we can move more freely, powerfully and articulately. Releasing classes use guided imagery and hands-on studies to enable creative explorations of principles such as suppleness, suspension, multi-directional alignment and economy in dancing.

Improvisation
Time:
6:30pm - 8:30pm
Description:
Motion is my language. In this class we will look at movement as a physical language that has its own vocabulary and grammar. Clearly enunciating what we do physically and understanding the vocabulary of movement allows us to speak without speaking, to carry on vibran conversations with our bodies. We will do lots of moving to physical scores that emphasise the fun one can have by being physically articulate.

Materials for Movement: Principles and Practice. The class work begins with warm ups focused on action and release of movement, in relationship to mass, gravity, momentum, falling, recovery, and reflex, to bring a state of flexibility and awareness to dancing. The movement work uses skeletal imaging and action, with particular focus given to the pelvis and spine as root and limb, for extending spherically and dimensionally into space. The material encourages sensation, movement research, and use of the dancer’s own form and action in relationship to the physical world.
