Moving On...

 

"I thought your guidance and recordings were just amazing, so engaging, immersing and inspiring.  Really brilliant. Yesterday and even still now, I felt I was breathing like I was a kid again. 

 I want to feel that feeling some more."

Daniel Van Alphen, participant at Moving On Composing with Climates 

​

"Saddlers Wells in the park! Inclusive, restorative. Special. Thank you!"

​

Moving On serves to reconnect body to nature. Via a radio sound installation or via headphones, listen to somatic audio guides that were conceived by dance and sound artists to inspire ways of being with the more-than-human. Moving On is created by a community of artists for a community of people to breathe deeply and move freely with our surroundings and become part of a wider ecosystem where dances emerge as a state of aliveness and connectivity.

Garthorne Road Nature Reserve, an oasis in Forest Hill, invites Moving On to bring nature and people closer together. A mix between headphone guides and radio installation, this event revisits audios that deal with the non-linear and slow nature of animate matter; features that unite people with each other and the more-than-human. We will take plenty of time to enjoy three sonic guides to allow for pauses and conversations to emerge alongside. 

If you want more regular engagements:

- we created a meet up called Openly Spaced Out that you can join. It means others can join you in your locality or you can join others making it easier to discover and move in spaces by being together.

- we have an online audio library that you can subscribe to. If you want to listen to audios to receive guidance or inspiration, just press play and enjoy a 20min + audio from over 25 episodes. Your subscription supports all the artists who made it happen.

- wanna know more? Our Archive presents processes, gives tastes of audios, and a playful interactive graph for visitor to make sense of the project and the various perspectives we share.

Moving On  Sensing Skin

 

Mountsfield Park, London 03 & 10 July 2022
Meanwodd Valley Urban City Farm, Leeds

Moving On Sensing Skin is an immersive experience that allows you to connect to nature via movement as they facilitate intricate tunings via our skin receptors, images and embodied connections. Together they open up pathways, that like windows, allow the light to filter through and gently mobilise you; inspiring  summery dances and a deeply felt sense of togetherness.

A secluded area of woodland in South London set on the broad slopes of a deep railway cutting offers an immersive ambience of sounds and words to reconnect to nature for a renewed sense of navigating life through our senses and environment. In collaboration with the London Wildlife Trust.

Artist: Laura Doehler, Anne-Gaelle Thiriot and Marina Collard

Past headphone events

This trailer we made with people from our community when we were still working with headphones. Giving voice and visibility to each  experience it shows how the feeling of connection of body to land and how movement created a new alternative and way forward.
 

"Moving On is a dance meet-up in the park. You are accompanied by professional dancers guiding you through a movement score. Rather than being the usual jumpy and poppy workout, Moving On is a meditative, introspective and vulnerable process. Wether you are deep into contemporary dance or not, it will be a novel experience of discoveries."

​

Florent Venet, participant of many Moving On projects during lockdown

The Story of Moving On

We created an archive the gives the full picture how Moving On came about and developed. Here is a brief introduction:

Moving On started in lockdown to make sure dancers could still dance and then realised, how in turn we opened this opportunity to make our whole community dance; how it transcends lockdown because the value of moving freely outdoors with others and nature, grows and nurtures our relationships. These audios are conceived by local dance artists with UK wide dance artists being invited as guests to disseminate the spirit across the country and across communities. The content are improvisation scores that, via sensory input and experiential anatomy, install embodied reflections to perceive movement as a state of aliveness and a time of union. You can engage in it by moving and witnessing or do both whenever it feels right. During the 1.5 hours, you adapt what you hear to your needs to enjoy nature as dance partner wherein both, you and nature, have agency. Moving On makes you feel the strength and courage that grows from collective action and acts like a danced climate march because we draw attention to being with nature more consciously. Yet, other than in marches, you won't get cold but feel rejuvenated and elated.


Moving On invites people from all walks of life to join us and get to know how we navigate and make sense of the world as movers. Together we create and strengthen a community made up of all who seek new ways to move on …

Since September 2020 we installed a regular outdoor movement practice with Moving On for dancers and non dancers alike. These are our past projects

Moving On Remembering is a spacious audio by Laura Doehler that invites you to connect to body and space as a reminder of the very basics that we need to look after and connect to. It is an audio that acknowledges the transient nature, how all will go and new things come, where presence, the here and now, shouldn't be forgotten but celebrated.
