Body Storytelling with Riley Davidson

Lia's Connective Dance

ConnectiveDance Workshop – w/ Lia Rottschy Hey! For me, dancing means living, being free, sensing. Establishing a connection with myself and other people through improvisation brings joy. Would you like to dance with me? My workshop is mainly about having fun together. We will work out a small dance piece to electronic dance music. Looking forward to a collective, energetic pulsation and celebration with YOU! :-) ************************************************************************* Long version...... Hey! I’m Lia (27), from Cologne and I’ve been dancing for as long as I can remember. For me, dance means living, being free and feeling. I was able to intensify this during my studies as a dance and music teacher and internalize it through numerous exciting experiences. Would you like to dance with me? ;-) My workshop it’s mainly about having fun together and working out a dance design through improvisation. There is then a roughly predetermined quality of movement and so-called “scores”, i. e. guidelines for the improvisation parts. Inspired by the dancer and choreographer Doris Uhlich, I have integrated the collective “Bouncing” in several classes and workshops. You bring your body, your flesh into vibrations and everything vibrates noticeably. We consciously release into the ground, into the earth. Free from any ideals, forms or structures. Like on the dance floor in front of the DJ. Or toddlers, for example, they dance impulsively when they hear music they like – rather jerky, bouncy movements, just as it feels right and good. That’s what dancing should be like, so I want to introduce you to feeling the music and just intuitively executing the movements that come out of the inside. This constant “bouncing” happens to electronic dance music – feeling, adapting and implementing the beat. This activity is then constantly developed: you can connect with the floor, walls, objects or other people. There is then a common pulsation with the group. By exploring alone and in small groups, you create your own movement material, which is then combined with a small group choreography, space paths and free parts. So we build our own “performance” together. I design my workshops or classes in such a way that there is a common warm-up to arrive and get acquainted with the group. For this purpose, I like to do perception exercises in space. I bring in some input of my own – technical exercises from contemporary dance, impulses for improvisation or a small sequence of movements that I teach. The creative design part follows as described above and to complete the whole thing, there is a common cool-down and a final relaxation. I look forward to a collective, energetic pulsation and celebrate together with YOU! :-)

NSU-Tribunal - Geschichte und Zukunft antirassistischer Kämpfe

Pirate Care

Mapping & Teaching Subversive Solidarity Workshop on subversive activist practices based on the pirate.care syllabus. Neoliberal policies have for the last two decades re-organised the basic care provisions that were previously considered cornerstones of democratic life – healthcare, housing, access to knowledge, right to asylum, freedom of mobility, social benefits, etc. – turning them into tools for surveilling, excluding and punishing the most vulnerable. Many radical, self-organised, technologically-enabled care & solidarity networks take a stand against this shift. This workshop explores their forms of rebellious solidarity, utilizing the pirate.care syllabus. Chris Grodotzki, Paul Wagner

Queering Marxist Feminism. Theorie und Praxis eines materialistischen Queer-Feminismus
