CREATIVE CLASS
DANCE CLASS WITH MIRIAM (MIM) KING
WHEN: WEDNESDAYS, 12:30 – 2:30 PM (2 HOURS)
LOCATION: THE DANCE SPACE, SOUTH EAST DANCE
DATES: 6 NOVEMBER – 18 DECEMBER (7 WEEKS)
COST:
ALL 7 CLASSES: £112
TRIAL LESSON: £16
In these classes Mim wishes to share a deep and tender way of working with one’s imagination and inhabiting the body, noticing connections from inside, to the space around, with a quality of connection to gravity and embodied presence. Through guided improvisations, we will explore Butoh dance through imagery, presence, awareness and the tension between opposites. Butoh (dance of transformation) is an avant-garde dance philosophy/method created in Japan in the late 1950s.
We will explore themes from nature, working with stillness, sense of presence, and ‘being’, rather than ‘doing’, discovering a natural rhythm, quality of breath, and awareness to all that is around, and that which we hold inside. Not just moving, yet what it is to ‘be’ and to be moved. We will work with a quality of ‘active listening’ exploring the body’s vital visceral expression through Butoh’s diverse ways of seeing/feeling/sensing.
CREATIVE CLASS
DANCE CLASS WITH LIZ AGGISS
WHEN: WEDNESDAYS, 12:30 – 2:30 PM (2 HOURS)
LOCATION: THE DANCE SPACE, SOUTH EAST DANCE
DATES: 8 JANUARY - 12 FEBRUARY (6 WEEKS)
COST:
ALL 6 CLASSES: £96
TRIAL LESSON: £16
50% discount available for people in receipt of Universal/Pension Credit
You are welcome to join Liz Aggiss for some creative thinking, creative dancing, creative writing and to generally experience her approach to dance. She’ll kick off with her 'special' brain and body warm ups. She’ll then offload and share her ideas and compositional tasks, and invite you to have fun deconstructing and interpreting them. She’ll play some fab music and probably accompany you on drum. She’ll finish up each session with a brief Q&A. And that’s it!
Liz Aggiss is an award-winning artist, the ‘enfant terrible’ of the bus pass generation, ‘the grand dame of anarchic dance’ and ‘the sister Iggy Pop never even knew he had’. Born on Nanny Goats Common, Dagenham, Essex, a post war baby, into a repressive era in the suburbs, where parents were truly in charge and children were seen and not heard, Liz Aggiss never had a clue who she was or what she wanted to do, she just knew she would like to be seen and heard.
