COLLECTIVE MOVEMENT
performance workshop  26. + 27.10.24

raumarbeiterinnen will be hosting a performance workshop weekend on October 26th and 27th under the theme "Collective Movement." The workshops aim to create a space for performative explorations. Together with Sophie Adelt, Tina Streich, and Tomaž Simatović, we will explore questions such as: How do we influence each other, and how does our coexistence affect our movements? How do I move alone in a world where we exist together? What impact do my movements have on my environment, and vice versa? How can I learn to read and understand movements and the emotions conveyed through them?

The individual workshops will combine tasks and exercises focused on spatial perception, movement, language, and interaction, aiming to offer a wide range of performative expressions within the theme. It is an invitation to engage in a process of space-making, rich in observation, listening, and sharing physical presence.

The workshop is aimed at people who are curious about their latent performative potential, those who want to develop it, or anyone seeking to strengthen their presence and interaction in collective everyday life. People from diverse social, cultural, and professional backgrounds are warmly invited to join this journey of discovery. No prior knowledge is necessary.

We prefer a fixed group for the entire weekend; however, it is also possible to attend the workshops individually.

COSTS

We offer the performance workshop with three pricing tiers to make it accessible to participants from different financial backgrounds.

Full weekend workshop: €25 / €45 / €60

Individual workshop price: €10 / €20

Food and drinks will be provided for a small donation.

if my body had a body - 

Stimme und Körper im Raum

In this workshop, we will work with our voices on a spatial level, using body movement to expand the sound field. Through vocal and rhythmic exercises, we will create loops and (dis)harmonies, and by applying methods from improvisation, we will generate spontaneous compositions that may serve as new material for (later) fixed pieces.

vivid body

Vivid Body is a Fusion of Contemporary and experimental choreography. I'm inviting you to stimulate your imagination, to feel the vibrations of your body, creating as a group, developing flexibility and to explore speed, shapes and your own inner creativity. The class will end with a small choreo which I choreographed. We will use different rhythms, our voice, words and melodies. I'm inviting you to connect to our passion to move and to explore the endless possibilities of your creativity. You don't need any experience in dance to participate.

Bio:

Tina Streich (Choreografie, Konzept, Performerin) arbeitet als freischaffende Tänzerin, Choreografin und Filmemacherin. Sie kreiert Körper im Raum, Bewegungen als Geschichtenerzähler*innen, gezeichnete Körper, Körper, die viel erlebt haben und viel erzählen. Sie möchte persönlichen Themen wie Neurodivergenz, Klassismus, Feminismus und Mobbing mehr Sichtbarkeit verleihen, Menschen sensibilisieren, Strukturen und Gewohnheiten hinterfragen und entstigmatisieren. Inklusive Arbeit wird nicht „über“, sondern „mit“ Betroffenen gemacht. Trotz der Ernsthaftigkeit der Themen möchte sie die Stücke immer wieder mit Humor und einer Prise Selbstironie bestreuen. Das ist ihre Art, mit den Dingen umzugehen und sie als potenzielle Quelle der Kreativität zu nutzen.

CHOREOMANIA: AWAKENING THE KINAESTHETIC SENSE

In this workshop we will be focusing on how to awaken the kinaesthetic sense through the practice of somatic listening, manifesting our individual kinaesthetic energy through movement and channeling it towards the emerging collective movement. Tomaž will briefly introduce his research on choreomania, the dancing madness of Middle Ages, as an example of historical collective movements that gave rise to spontaneous large-scale dance rituals, seen by historians as a collective healing and expression of freedom against tyranny and oppression. From this historical context we will dive into the movement practice of the now. As part of ´The Bodyspeaking Project Tomaž will share some principles from the Bodyspeaking practice, a form of movement meditation, cultivating interoceptive awareness and mindfulness through the act of somatic listening. The workshop is intended for
