Samstag, 21. November – Sonntag, 22. November
This workshop is designated for professional dancers and artists willing to be challenged and interested in humanity and life. It will take you into FM Practice universe, which has been part of Natalia’s life since 2006. No previous experience with FM Practice is required. Full heart engagement is more than welcome.
You will experience mainly “movement situations” – irregular training methods to provoke and increase the adaptive value of your behavioral traits and strategic planning. We will “imagine what if”, create parallel worlds (theater) to receive answers aka “informations” that can help us better communicate with ourselves, others and the world.
We will work on complex – and most of the time improvised – structures to improve your movement qualities and increase your creative variability (creative variability in all aspects of life: artistic, professional, personal). We will focus on understanding the underlying principles of human motion and how stress and pressure affect our perception, behavior and actions and how creatively adaptive we can be in complex situations.
Foster improvisation, imagination and creativity. The above are vital to problem solving. Which is vital to adaptability, longevity and sustainability. Improvisation as one of necessities of life. Imagination as one of the ways of thinking about life. Creativity as one of the ways of communicating / engaging with it.
In order to face complexity of life we need to start loving solving life challenges. Therefor we will test also those lands. We will concentrate on strengthening and elaborating your partnering skills – other words speaking: your « communication skills ». Working with the partner will bring us the alive and so precious irregularity in the training; will influence our behavior, the diversity of qualities, tempo and rhythm of our movement. Through partnering work – “movement situations”, coordinations, work with tools, injury prevention and body conditioning and « being », we will work on strengthening the focus, the awareness and the whole system. We will break the patterns (unlearn them), learn new patterns and try to find our wings.
We will question how can one learn in his best capacities.
How can one be open to the „new“ and still be well rooted?
About Natalia
Born in the Wild East.
Based in the North West.
Soul coordinates 22°25’00.0″N 12°00’00.0″W
Natalia got married somewhere in Switzerland to a man who can carry more than 100kg on his shoulders. She can cook a whole dinner for 17 persons and she can have 3 espressos in a row. A collector of: animal bones – especially golden dragons, complex fragrances, aromatic herbs, stones and rocks.
She has knowledge of: how to grow a plant from a single leaf, hip hop music from 1992 to 2010, inner and outer order, anthropology of cultures.
She believes in the logic of the universe.
She likes to walk slowly, terribly slowly, as it reminds her that time doesn’t exist and that presence is to be somewhere.A performer, dancer, teacher, also known as the “polish hammer”. She rooted herself with FM practice, and in SEAD, graduating with a double diploma in choreography and performance. Since 2006, she has been following the Fighting Monkey (FM) path. This gave an axis to her teaching and life.
As a pedagogue, she is motivated by an urge for movement as a consequence of being alive and by an endless and necessary will to share. Her teaching reaches people from various grounds – dancers, actors, circus and sports people -everyone willing to “try”.
Natalia is currently busy with FM, TCM, stillness and motherhood, dreams and trees.
She would not mind being a bird or an ocean –but she is the happiest when she can be herself.
If she would be asked to close with a quote she would say: All I ask is that you step with me into the boundlessness, where constancy, quietude and peace, infinite emptiness reign.
