Workshop desciption:

SPONTANEOUS COMPOSITION

In the Workshop of spontaneous composition we will play with a different tools.

1.How to be ready dance spontaneously in any situation without to long preparation.

2.How to compose an OPEN DANCE spontaneously with different individuals in collective environment.

We will use tools from improvisation, choreography and our physical experience that we carry with us every day.

In this workshop I would like to specifically focus and exercise solo work , duet work, different possibilities of group work as well. I found a little system of work how to approach this practice in efficient way.

Workshop will demand physical ongoing tries and openness to resolve any kind of situations that will happen in the moment of this process.

Class description: Peter Jasko – Play

My class is about working with powerfull physicality related to the floor and air. The focus of the class is to develop movement in different levels – up and down possitions, shifting support and balance in different parts of the body and handstand work .My inspiration for the class comes from every living moment that i sense in my life. We start class with full power by playing games that wake up the body and mind. Improvisation or Open dancing, will be the tool to start from.

Later we slow down and focus on the short exercises that connect to final phrases that will end the class. Rythmically we extend and shift movement from the floor phrases in the air and down again, using speed and effinciency of our body. I want support action and fearlesness. In a playfull environment I want to work with instinct to discover different kinds of movement possibilities.
The point of my class is to develop trust among the group and build safe conclusions to difficult actions.
