SUMMARY:Terra Preta: Cultivating Space for Abundance – a Theatre Camp with Solal
DESCRIPTION:Terra Preta: Cultivating Space for Abundance – a Theatre Camp with Solal \n\n\n\n5-11 December\, 2024 Camino Art House\, Gran Canaria\, Spain \n\n\n\nWelcome to Terra Preta: Cultivating Space for Abundance\, a unique theatre camp designed to explore the interplay between creating space and preparing for new beginnings. This immersive experience uses theatre as a dynamic tool for personal growth\, community-building\, and overcoming obstacles. \n\n\n\nTerra Preta\, the ‘Amazonian dark earth’ is an allegorical symbol of our work through the week. It represents a nutritious soil where we can plant our seeds. A space that we cleared up to cultivate new ideas\, perspectives and narratives. Terra Preta is an ancient way of preparing the earth for planting\, contains not only earth\, but additional nutrients\, carbon and the care of the gardener. When this space is ready\, your seeds will grow fast\, strong and the healthiest way it is possible. \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Camp \n\n\n\nThis theatre camp invites participants to explore the profound relationship between clearing space and preparing ourselves to welcome new experiences. We will delve into the essential process of making space—both physically and emotionally—before we can fully embrace and accept what is to come. \n\n\n\nThroughout the week\, we will examine the importance of understanding and discovering the spaces within us—our souls\, memories\, and hearts. This journey requires us to first identify what no longer serves us: the habits\, emotions\, and thoughts that we continue to hold onto\, even when they only add unnecessary weight to our lives. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nParticipants will engage in improvisation exercises to help them process and let go of these burdens. Letting go is a significant task that varies for everyone—it can be quick or slow\, painful or liberating. Through movement and voice techniques\, we will explore different ways of releasing what no longer supports our growth. \n\n\n\nAs we prepare to receive\, and connect\, we will focus on understanding our desires and needs. We will learn how to ask for what we seek\, how to manifest it\, and how to bring it into our lives with intention. Finally\, through the co-creation of a performance as a result of the camp\, we will reflect on how to maintain and nurture this abundance\, ensuring that what we have received continues to serve us and remains aligned with our evolving selves. \n\n\n\nThis camp offers a transformative experience\, combining introspection\, creative expression\, and personal growth. Join us on this journey of clearing\, discovery\, and readiness to welcome new beginnings. \n\n\n\nWhen: \n\n\n\n5-11 December 2024 \n\n\n\nLevel and experience needed \n\n\n\nthe camp is suitable for totally beginners to advanced level theatre and movement lovers. You don’t need to be an actor or have any experience in acting or movement arts to attend the program. This is all about playing\, learning to connect to others while you discover your inner secrets. \n\n\n\nOur facilitator \n\n\n\nSolal has been developing their theatre practice from a young age and got acquainted with different styles ranging from classical\, naturalistic\, contemporary\, improvisation\, clowning\, dance and physical theatre. Throughout their studies\, they realized that what captivates them the most about any theatre practice is working as a group and collective. Having always felt that there was more to learn from the chaos of life than academia\, they chose to travel the world\, volunteering in several communities in Europe. They found joy and passion in sharing diversity of knowledge and experiences\, with the open mind of a child. They met antagontheaterAKTion on their way in 2022 and joined the group shortly after\, to strengthen their belief in the extensive experiment with both theatre and communal practice. As a teacher\, their speciality are improvisation\, stage presence and emotional training. \n\n\n\nWorkshop Overview \n\n\n\nThe workshop is designed to unlock creativity\, enhance stage presence\, and deepen the connection with both the self and the audience. We will be drawing from various disciplines to build a comprehensive toolkit for performers\, combining improvisation\, clowning\, physical theatre\, singing\, choreography\, and meditative practices. \n\n\n\nMethodology \n\n\n\nImprovisation: We will start each day with improvisation exercises. These will help participants to think on their feet\, embrace spontaneity\, and develop the ability to create compelling narratives and characters on the spot. \n\n\n\nClowning: Through the art of clowning\, we’ll explore vulnerability\, joy\, and the freedom to fail. This module encourages participants to connect with their inner child\, fostering authenticity and presence in their performances. \n\n\n\nPhysical Theatre: Our physical theatre sessions will focus on using the body as a primary tool of expression. Participants will learn to convey complex emotions and stories through movement\, emphasizing the importance of physicality in performance. \n\n\n\nSinging and Choreography: Integrating voice and movement\, we’ll work on singing techniques and simple choreography. These sessions aim to enhance vocal expression and build confidence in coordinating voice and body\, contributing to the overall dynamism of the performance. \n\n\n\nMeditation and Visualization: To ease into character work and support mental and emotional preparation\, we’ll practice meditation and visualization. These techniques will help participants center themselves\, connect with their characters on a deeper level\, and find creative inspiration from within. \n\n\n\nCollaborative Creation: \n\n\n\nA key component of this workshop is the emphasis on co-creation. While I am here to guide you and facilitate the process\, this experience is a collective endeavour. Your ideas\, influences\, and unique contributions are essential to the outcome. You are encouraged to take an active role—whether it’s proposing a song\, suggesting a movement\, or offering a new perspective on a scene. This workshop is about building a community where everyone supports each other\, creating a space of trust\, openness\, and shared creativity. \n\n\n\nOutcome: \n\n\n\nBy the end of the week\, participants will have developed a versatile set of skills that they can apply to any theatrical performance. The final performance will be a culmination of the week’s work\, showcasing not only the individual talents of each participant but also the collaborative spirit that has been fostered throughout the workshop. The result will be a unique\, co-created piece of theatre that reflects the collective creativity and shared effort of the group. \n\n\n\nProgram \n\n\n\nDec 5 \n\n\n\nCamino – 10am opening circle – 1pm lunch – 3-8pm activities – 8 dinner \n\n\n\nDec 6 \n\n\n\nNature – 8-9am breakfast – 9am meditation – 10am – 1pm activites in nature – piknik lunch – 3pm-7pm activities in nature 8pm dinner in camino \n\n\n\nDec 7 \n\n\n\nCamino – 8-9 breakfast – 9am pranayama\, meditation – 10-1pm activities – 1pm lunch – 3-7pm activites\, 8pm dinner – campfire with some connecting games/talks/tasks… \n\n\n\nDec 8 \n\n\n\nRESTING DAY – no activities \n\n\n\nDec 9 \n\n\n\nLas Palmas – 8-9am breakfast in Camino\, 9 meditation – 10-2pm activites in las palmas – lunch break (piknik?) 5-8 – open workshops in las palmas\, dinner in las palmas \n\n\n\nDec 10 \n\n\n\nNature – 8-9am breakfast – 9am meditation – 10am – 1pm activites in nature – piknik lunch – 3pm-7pm activities in nature 8pm dinner in camino – camp fire + cave gathering in dragon \n\n\n\nDec 11 \n\n\n\nCamino and SHOW – 6pm SHOW (on roof?) \n\n\n\nAbout Camino Art HouseCamino Art House opened its doors in 2015.

SUMMARY:"Spacing" - Contact Improvisation and Contemporary Dance Camp
DESCRIPTION:Spacing – Creating Space for Welcoming the New Experience \n\n\n\nContact Improvisation and Contemporary Dance Camp \n\n\n\nCamino Art House\, Gran Canaria\, Spain \n\n\n\n9-14 November 2024 \n\n\n\nWhat is between letting go and reception? Between freeing up and allowing in? Between breathing out and breathing in? \n\n\n\nThere must be a beautiful inner space\, that we need to create\, discover or find right after releasing something to be able to be ready to intake. We cannot welcome anything until we have the space for it. This space can be created again and again. \n\n\n\nLooking for the Inner Space can be hard\, even scary sometimes. What can you do with an empty space? How long can you sit with it\, hold it\, or protect it? What is there for you? Are you able to let go? Are you ready to receive? \n\n\n\nDuring this dance camp we will discover how to find this space. Starting with letting things go that are not supporting us anymore\, we will practice the action of “spacing” and learn how to allow ourselves to take in what is offered to us. Dancing is a powerful tool to discover such mysteries things\, and to embody feelings through movement\, action and connection. \n\n\n\nOn this journey we will have two talented facilitators with us: Timi will lead us through contact dance and improvisation\, and Viki will be helping us through a more structured and technical way through contemporary dance. The balance of the two aspects will lead us to a beautiful journey. The camp is a safe place\, and we are holding the space for each other so you can learn and experience whatever is there for you to learn and experience. \n\n\n\nWelcome to our yearly contact improvisation and contemporary dance camp at Camino Art House. On these days you will be focusing on your movements\, and the connection between your body\, mind and soul\, in a conversation with others and your instructors. \n\n\n\nWhen: 9-14 November 2024 \n\n\n\nLevel and experience needed: the camp is suitable for totally beginners to advanced level movement lovers. You don’t need to be a dancer or have any experience in dancing to attend the program. Our aim is to help you to learn the wonderful connection with your feelings\, mind and movements. In this way this is not only a dance camp\, but a complex self-discovery camp. \n\n\n\nWhat you will experience:Daily theme classes in contact improvisation and contemporary dance styleExciting trips and dancing in natureLiberation of your energies\, movementsConnection to yourself and others around youInspiring environment of Camino Art House \n\n\n\nExperiencing real room dance class \n\n\n\nOpening up for dancing with others in one open workshop in Las PalmasHealthy nourishing vegan food \n\n\n\nWhat you will learn:Self-confidence\, freedom\, balance\, to play\, to stand up when you fall\, connect with others\, the nature of your body\, how to motivate yourself\, how to find inspiration\, how to let go\, how to make space for new experiences \n\n\n\nWhat you will unlearn:Self-doubt\, fear of unknow\, sense of confinement\, stiffness\, feeling stuck\, insensibility \n\n\n\nWhat is contact improvisation?Contact Improvisation (CI) is a dance form\, originated by American choreographer Steve Paxton in 1972\, based on the communication between two or more moving bodies that are in physical contact and their combined relationship to the physical laws that govern their motion—gravity\, momentum\, inertia.The body\, in order to open to these sensations\, must learn to release excess muscular tension and abandon a certain quality of willfulness to experience the natural flow of movement. Practice includes rolling\, falling\, being upside down\, following a physical point of contact\, supporting and giving weight to a partner.Contact improvisations are spontaneous physical dialogues that range from stillness to highly energetic exchanges. Alertness is developed in order to work in an energetic state of physical disorientation\, trusting in one’s basic survival instincts. It is a free play with balance\, self-correcting the wrong moves and reinforcing the right ones\, bringing forth a physical/emotional truth about a shared moment of movement that leaves the participants informed\, centered\, and enlivened. — Nancy Stark Smith \n\n\n\nWhat is contemporary dance? \n\n\n\nContemporary dance is a style of interpretive dance that embraces innovation\, blending techniques from various genres\, including classical ballet\, jazz\, modern dance\, and lyrical dance. It focuses more on floor work over leg work\, and isn’t restricted by the rules that govern traditional dance forms. Instead\, it relies on improvisation and versatility and is characterized by freedom of movement and fluidity\, letting dancers explore the mind-body connection and ideally evoking emotion in the audience. Contemporary dance may communicate abstract ideas\, such as ethical values\, acceptance of self\, and timely social issues. Performers may perform this type of dance to various musical styles\, spoken word poems and songs\, or silence. \n\n\n\nOur facilitators and mentors: \n\n\n\nTÍMEA GYÖRKE (hu)\, dancer\, teacher\, movement- and dance therapist \n\n\n\nShe earned her degree in gymnastics training\, physical education and physical therapy at the Hungarian University of Physical Education in 1994. During this time\, she met modern and contemporary dances and Contact Improvisation. Since 2004 she has been teaching these dance forms for kids-parents (Family Contact – www.kontakttanchaz.wordpress.com)\, for teens in secondary school and for adults in university.She was a member of the organizers and teachers’ team of the Hungarian CI Festivals\, ECITE and CI events. She travels a lot to teach and to study as well. She collected her experiences as a teacher from Freiburg (CI Fest.)\, Gottingen (Contact meet Contemporary)\, Cluj-Napoca (Transcontact Fest.)\, Budapest (Contact Budapest Fest.)\, Marburg\, Copenhagen…As the member of Workshop Company and Group Tetra Ether she investigates improvisation and the connection between movement – music- visual arts\, organizing Impro Jams\, site specific and crossroads performances. www.tetraeter.wordpress.comWith the land artist\, Sabine Fazekas she led several workshops in the nature.From 2021 she became the member of L1 Independent Artists in Public Utility. It is mission to secure professional support for independent Hungarian artists in performing and creative arts.She is interested in – not just the physical motion\, but the soul – the „psyche” of the movement. This was the reason she started her studies in Psychodynamic movement- and dance therapy. \n\n\n\nDance classes:– will based on modern and contemporary dance techniques– we use easy acrobatics\, CI skills and improvisation as well– at the end we create small combinations and compositions \n\n\n\nOutdoor work:– we use “land art”\, free motion\, CI\, the nature and each other– we create bridge between nature and interactive body interventions– we develop our listening\, the awareness; create special connection with ourselves and with the nature around– reading the landscape and opening our perceptions help us to reconnect to the state of the early age’s global perception (synaesthesia) \n\n\n\nThe aim is to find the cohesion of the group by creating strong interactions in the nature. Therefore\, improvisation and freedom in motion will be encouraged and lead to install a particular communication between us.This combination is due to reinforce our connection to the nature and integrate deeply the inner and outer experience of being a part of Nature. \n\n\n\n——————————- \n\n\n\nVIKTORIA VARGA (hu)\, dancer\, contemporary dance teacher \n\n\n\nViktória was born on August 19\, 1968\, in Budapest\, Hungary\, is a dancer and contemporary dance teacher with extensive training and experience. Her dance education began at Kreativ Movement Studio (1986-1990)\, followed by studies at Budapest Dance School (1990-1992) and further training at Essen Folkwang Schule in Germany (1992/93). She later completed her BA (2005-2009) and MA (2010-2012) at the Budapest Contemporary Dance Academy. \n\n\n\nVarga has participated in workshops such as ImPuls Tanz in Vienna\, where she studied contemporary technique under Ted Stoffer\, among others. Her involvement in collective dance works includes collaborations with choreographers like Tamás Bakó and Adrienn Hód on productions such as “Code of Line\,” “Nest\,” and “Concrete Lotus.” She also contributed to projects like “Surface Connection” with LajkaLAB and the 2019 performance “Nibiru\,” which involved children. \n\n\n\nIn her teaching career\, Varga has worked at the Budapest Basic Art School\, focusing on creative children’s dance\, and at the Budapest Contemporary Dance Academy.

SUMMARY:Gravity Glue Photo Exhibition and Balance Day with Michael Grab\, alias Gravity Glue
DESCRIPTION:7th December\, 5pmGravity Glue Photo Exhibition – Camino Art Den (Las Palmas\, Calle Alonso Alvarado 5) \n\n\n\n13th December\, 1pmGravity Glue Balance Day – Camino Art House (Vega de San Mateo) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“You have to do the hard things. The things that no one else is doing. The things that scare you. The things that make you wonder how much longer you can hold on. Those are the things that define you. Those are the things that make the difference between living a life of mediocrity or outrageous success.”~ Dan Waldschmidt \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“This has been a central approach to most of my daily practice.. to challenge myself\, often beyond my known skill level… destroying my own comfort zones in the process.. Like I’ve always said\, if my first thought is “this will never work”\, it often yields some kind of magic if I decide to go all in anyway… killing expectations is a prerequisite. Same concept with traveling to new locations\, or considering various international contracts/live performances. If a prospect scares the hell out of me\, then it usually demands a higher position on my potential ‘to do’ list. Another good bit of advice along this line of thinking is to start before you’re ready. If all you do is wait until you’re ready\, then there’s a good chance that A) you’ll never be READY\, and/or B) you will have missed the immediate window of opportunity..I can attribute a substantial proportion of my past successes to pursuing my curiosity into the unknown. Doing things that scared me shitless. Facing the tasks my logical mind says no to… or “this is impossible”. Each one of these instances has both enriched my skill\, overall work\, portfolio\, heart\, mind\, and character in some way.” – Michael Grab \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease meet Michael Grab\, alias Gravity Glue! We are honored to host him at Camino Art House in December and invite you to his Photo Exhibition (in our Las Palmas Studio) and Balance Day (in Camino Art House in Vega de San Mateo). These days are going to be extraordinary! Not just because of his magical presence\, but also because we will study and practice the unknown\, we will master the universe\, the law of everything and more\, and we will learn about ourselves. Experimenting and challenging the „impossible”\, observing the most important energy of the planet: gravity\, will be our main focus. We will use different techniques\, methods and different environments. The only thing that will remain the same: the balance that we are all looking for. \n\n\n\n7th December\, 5pmGravity Glue Photo Exhibition – Camino Art Den (Las Palmas) \n\n\n\nWhat is balance?Definitions from Oxford Dictionarybalance /ˈbaləns/noun1.an even distribution of weight enabling someone or something to remain upright and steady. “she lost her balance and fell”Similar: stability\, equilibrium\, steadiness\, footingOpposite: instability \n\n\n\n2.a situation in which different elements are equal or in the correct proportions. “the obligations of political balance in broadcasting”Similar: Fairness\, justice\, impartiality\, egalitarianism\, equal opportunity\, parity\, equity\, equilibrium\, evenness\, symmetry\, equipoise\, correspondence\, uniformity\, equality\, equivalence\, similarity\, levelness\, parallelism\, comparabilityOpposite: imbalance \n\n\n\nverb1.put (something) in a steady position so that it does not fall. “a mug that she balanced on her knee”Similar: Steady\, stabilize\, poise\, level\, prop\, position \n\n\n\n2.offset or compare the value of (one thing) with another. “the cost of obtaining such information needs to be balanced against its benefits”Similar: weigh \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur guest: Michael Grab \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy name is Michael Grab\, and I began balancing rocks via “happy accident” in the Summer of 2008 while exploring Boulder Creek (Boulder\, CO\, USA). Since then\, curious spark has spiraled into creative passion\, way of life\, and prolific international phenomenon/movement. \n\n\n\nI quickly noticed the therapeutic/transformative effects that balancing and working with nature had on myself and others; in an artistic sense\, but also nurturing something uniquely human\, inspiring a sense of magic and peace\, luring awareness out of the mind and into the moment — ultimately cultivating a meditative presence.“Gravity Glue” is the alias I created to describe and share my experience in the realm of Stone Balance Art/Yoga \n\n\n\nGravity is the only “Glue” that holds these structures in equilibrium. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGravity Glue on the surface was initially created for sharing my balance art; However\, through time and experience\, the cultivated ethos of GG appears to demonstrate a process of learning to “flow” as an integral function of Nature. It is an archetype for creation\, whose key to the universe is creative active meditation and alignment with nature\, through which\, one touches/experiences infinity on a regular basis. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMusic improv workshop in the land\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n13th December\, 1pm – Gravity Glue Balance Day – Camino Art House (Vega de San Mateo) \n\n\n\nWhat is Rock Balancing? The process boils down to contemplative vertical stone arrangement; involving patience\, problem-solving\, critical thinking\, adaptation\, slow-breathing\, steady hands\, and a lot of other practiced skills… \n\n\n\nRock Balancing is: Worldwide Phenomenon\, Contemplative Yoga Practice\, Ephemeral Nature Art/Therapy\, Psychological Alchemy\, Magic. \n\n\n\nPhysical Ingredients: Rocks + Gravity \n\n\n\nMetaphysical Ingredients: Patience + Open/Empty Mind \n\n\n\n… \n\n\n\nWhat we will do on the Gravity Glue Day?

SUMMARY:Streamflow\, contact improvisation and contemporary dance camp
DESCRIPTION:Streamflow\, contact improvisation and contemporary dance campCamino Art House\, Gran Canaria\, Spain17-23 Novembre\, 2023 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIntroductionWhat is contact improvisation?Program of the dance campOur facilitatorsAccommodation\, food\, fees and contact \n\n\n\n\nWould you follow my lead and let yourself move with freedom? You can rely on me\, feel me\, trust me. Follow the call that is pulling you\, holding you and keeping you. This is the first step.Second: would you follow your own lead and let yourself move with freedom? You can rely on yourself\, feel yourself\, trust yourself. You are dancing\, they say\, but you know that this is not a dance. This is life. You live. This is your cycle of life. Like there is a cycle of water\, and cycle of streamflow… \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nphotos by Haukur Snorrason \n\n\n\nWhat is the streamflow? \n\n\n\nWater flows downhill due to Earth’s gravity (force of attraction between two masses) pulling it. Streams\, like rivers\, are gravity-driven bodies of moving surface water that drain water from the continents.Streamflow is the way in which water moves within a stream channel. It can be influenced by the source of the water\, the water speed\, the direction of the water flow\, and objects within the stream. There are two different ways that water can flow in a stream: laminar or turbulent.In the water cycle: Streamflow is water moving across the Earth’s surface in streams. Evaporation happens when water changes from a liquid to a gas and moves from the Earth’s surface back into the atmosphere. By Transpiration water is pulled out of the soil and released into the atmosphere by plants.In physics: Streamflow is the volumetric discharge expressed in volume per unit time (typically cubic meters per second (m3/s)) that takes place in a stream or channel and varies in time and space. \n\n\n\nWelcome to our very first contact improvisation and modern dance camp at Camino Art House. On these days you will be focusing on your movements\, and the connection between your body\, mind and soul\, in a conversation with others and your instructiors. \n\n\n\nWhen: 17-23 November\, 2023 \n\n\n\nLevel and experience needed: the camp is suiatable for totally beginners to advenced level movement lovers. You don’t need to be a dancer\, or have any experience in dancing to attend the program. Our aim is to help you to learn the wonderful connection with your feelings\, mind and movements. In this way this is not only a dance camp\, but a complex self-discovery camp. \n\n\n\nWhat you will experience:Daily theme classes in contact improvisation and modern dance styleExciting trips and dancing in natureLiberation of your energies\, movementsConnection to yourself and others around youInspiring environment of Camino Art HouseHealthy nourishing vegan food \n\n\n\nWhat you will learn:Self-confidence\, freedom\, balance\, to play\, to stand up when you fall\, connect with others\, the nature of your body\, how to motivate yourself\, how to find inspirationWhat you will unlearn:Self-doubt\, fear of unknow\, sense of confinement\, stiffness\, feeling stuck\, insensibility \n\n\n\nWhat is contact improvisation?Contact Improvisation is a dance form\, originated by American choreographer Steve Paxton in 1972\, based on the communication between two or more moving bodies that are in physical contact and their combined relationship to the physical laws that govern their motion—gravity\, momentum\, inertia.The body\, in order to open to these sensations\, must learn to release excess muscular tension and abandon a certain quality of willfulness to experience the natural flow of movement. Practice includes rolling\, falling\, being upside down\, following a physical point of contact\, supporting and giving weight to a partner.Contact improvisations are spontaneous physical dialogues that range from stillness to highly energetic exchanges. Alertness is developed in order to work in an energetic state of physical disorientation\, trusting in one’s basic survival instincts. It is a free play with balance\, self-correcting the wrong moves and reinforcing the right ones\, bringing forth a physical/emotional truth about a shared moment of movement that leaves the participants informed\, centered\, and enlivened. — Nancy Stark Smith \n\n\n\nOur facilitators and mentors: \n\n\n\nENIKŐ SZILÁGYI (Hu) is a contact improvisation teacher\, Structural Integrator\, dancer\, movement therapist\, Fascial Movement trainer. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHaving experienced many forms of bodywork she brought her focus on fascial therapy and Somatic Movement methods. She works in her private practice (FluidBody) as therapist in Structural Integration (Fascial SeptumWork)\, Fascial trainer and movement educator. She regularly leads workshops in Fascial training\, somatic movement and Contact Improvisation.After earning a university degree at the Hungarian University of Physical Education as a teacher of physical education; teacher of APA (Adapted Physical Activity) and physiotherapist\, she studied contemporary dance techniques\, contact improvisation\, acrobatics at Contemporary DanceLab School in Budapest.Since then\, she has been passionately involved in dancing and somatic movement\, learned from various magnificent teachers from all over the world. As a performer\, she has participated in various research projects on improvisation and performance. She is founder of SferaLab and member of L1 Association (Hungarian Independent Artists Association of Public Utility).She has taught at Kontakt Budapest Festival; Poland Contact Festival\, Warsaw; Trans-Contact Festival\, Romania; Contact Meets Contemporary Festival\, Göttingen; Contact in Rio Festival\, Brazil; Italy Contact Festival\, Arezzo\, Italy; Contact Crete Festival\, Crete\, Greece; Potsdam\, Germany\, Inesperadamente Festival\, Murcia\, Spain; Fuerteventura CI Festival\, Canarian Islands\, Freiburg CI Festival\, Israel Contact Festival and others.Organized L1danceFest in Budapest 2015 and ECITE in 2016 (European Contact Improvisation Teachers Exchange) in Hungary. \n\n\n\nIn addition she teaches her own somatic-based improvisation and conscious movement system what called ’FluidBody’. \n\n\n\nHer main interest in body awareness:• improving posture\, balance and freedom of movement• delving deeper into the body’s intelligence and attain to a better relationship with gravity• finding more balanced\, efficient\, and fluid movement within in our life. \n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/fluidofbody\n\n\n\n\n————————————– \n\n\n\nTÍMEA GYÖRKE (hu)\, dancer\, teacher\, movement- and dance therapist \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShe earned her degree in gymnastics training\, physical education and physical therapy at the Hungarian University of Physical Education in 1994. During this time she met modern and contemporary dances and Contact Improvisation. Since 2004 she has been teaching these dance forms for kids-parents (Family Contact – www.kontakttanchaz.wordpress.com)\, for teens in secondary school and for adults in university.She was a member of the organizers and teachers’ team of the Hungarian CI Festivals\, ECITE and CI events. She travels a lot to teach and to study as well. She collected her experiences as a teacher from Freiburg (CI Fest.)\, Gottingen (Contact meet Contemporary)\, Cluj-Napoca (Transcontact Fest.)\, Budapest (Contact Budapest Fest.)\, Marburg\, Copenhagen…As the member of Workshop Company and Group Tetra Ether she investigates improvisation and the connection between movement – music- visual arts\, organizing Impro Jams\, site specific and crossroads performances. www.tetraeter.wordpress.comWith the land artist\, Sabine Fazekas she led several workshops in the nature.From 2021 she became the member of L1 Independent Artists in Public Utility. It is mission to secure professional support for independent Hungarian artists in performing and creative arts.She is interested in – not just the physical motion\, but the soul – the „psyche” of the movement. This was the reason she started her studies in Psychodynamic movement- and dance therapy.Dance classes:– will based on modern and contemporary dance techniques– we use easy acrobatics\, CI skills and improvisation as well– at the end we create small combinations and compositions \n\n\n\nOutdoor work:– we use “land art”\, free motion\, CI\, the nature and each other– we create bridge between nature and interactive body interventions– we develop our listening\, the awareness; create special connection with ourselves and with the nature around– reading the landscape and opening our perceptions help us to reconnect to the state of the early age’s global perception (synaesthesia) \n\n\n\nThe aim is to find the cohesion of the group by creating strong interactions in the nature. Therefore\, improvisation and freedom in motion will be encouraged and lead to install a particular communication between us.This combination is due to reinforce our connection to the nature and integrate deeply the inner and outer experience of being a part of Nature. \n\n\n\nProgram: \n\n\n\nNov 17 FridayArriving\, cooking together\, introduction\, dinner \n\n\n\nNov 18 Saturday10-13 dance (camino)15-18 dance (camino) \n\n\n\nNov 19 Sunday10-13 dance (mogan)15-18 dance in the dunes (maspalomas)Sunset and dinner in Tauro \n\n\n\nNov 20 Monday10-13 dance – Roque nublo (50 min drive\, 1h walk to roque)/ dance somewhere on the way7pm sunset \n\n\n\nNov 21 Tuesday10-13 dance (Las palmas)Dance – las canteras or el confital.Evening hours: dance in room (experiencing real dance floor and difference of closed\, indoor environment from outdoor and natural) \n\n\n\nNov 22 Wednesday10-13 dance (camino)15-18 dance (camino)Camp fire \n\n\n\nNov 23 Thursday10-13 dance (camino)15-17 dance (camino)18.00 final show – Let Me Fall Festival opening show \n\n\n\nNov 23 -26 – Let Me Fall Art and Self-development Festival\, camino art house \n\n\n\nAbout Camino Art HouseCamino Art House opened its doors in 2015.
