Shared Levitation Partnering

We like to focus on an organic way of Partnering, based on action/reaction principles inspired by martial arts, acrobatic partnering, Contact Improvisation and social dances.

We start the class by opening our channels of awareness and connect to our partner by manipulating, testing and speculating with his/her structure and weight.
A special focus in this phase is the use of our whole body doing the task, not only being limited to our hands and arms. With the help of exercises and games in different constellations, every time changing and adapting to a new partner and universe – we listen, follow and direct the movement as one functioning organism through space.

We get ready to jump, cross, push, pull, avoid, embrace and suspend each other. Another important aspect of our class is the constant change of the level of activity for both roles. We learn how much resistance, power and direction is needed to reach our maximum together by investigating with the given tools, and finally learning fixed Partnering material at the end of each class.
