Moving On...

About:

Our audio guides that last about 1.5hours and invite a personal improvisation movement practice by carving attention to sensory input, experiential anatomy and imagery. People engage with it in parks across London and further afield in Europe. Conceived for lockdown it allows one’s practice to unfold in relation to others while keeping a safe distance. We propose large open spaces for people to move alone yet see each other and visually connect.

It is an outdoor activity where a shared physical presence that is safe installs reflections on our relationship to nature. It proposes that movement is a state of aliveness and a way of life which people can engage in by moving and witnessing. The guide is for all ages and backgrounds as participants adapt it to their needs.

This way we can still connect and not feel isolated in our practice outdoors or isolated overall. We hope that people from all walks of life can join us and get to know how we navigate and make sense in order to connect not only to moving but moving together as a means to move on …

Audio's that have been made as part of full length audio guides (that featured three to four dance artists) are split into separate audios allowing you to connect to a particular artist and audio. It might bring back memories but even if you have not done them yet they offer an insight to a season and a 'current state of affairs' as we found ourselves with certain restrictions or desires. 

This booking link will show which artists are currently involved. 

​

You may choose to book one or many and if you want to do them yourself or with others. You can invite people to join you via our Openly Spaced Out group or just ask a friend if you like.  

It begins with a tree meditation, an audio by Kirstie Simson, a world-renown practitioner, pioneer and teacher of CI. She is now based in Wales and shares her way to connect to trees that shapes and influences one's way of being fundamentally. Vanio Papdelli and Laura Doehler, also practitioners, teachers and researcher of dance and CI, take you through their own way of perceiving and being with and amongst trees that inspire movement as something that grows from within, continually seeking and negotiating connection and reach with one's environment that in many ways, is a way to depart from and come back home.
