Dance – from the inside out
This dance workshop offers a rich mixture of discovering, training and depth.
Based on the contemporary dance technique, we train our instrument, our body, foster our body awareness and create and develop a great movement vocabulary.
With dance improvisation we break out of the technical structure and dive into free movement. In this process, we keep discovering our body and movement potential anew.
In particular, this workshop focuses on connecting with the Holy Spirit through our dancing. We get to learn to be led by Him in our movements and experience what He does in and through us when we dance. At the same time, we get to grow into greater freedom and knowledge of who God is and who we are in Him.
