Somatic Ballet

Kurs with Amie-Blaire Chartier

Using ballet’s clear form and structure, Amie-Blaire combines the somatic principles of deep internal listening to find freedom and joy in dance. This class will focus on working through ballet technique using the individual’s experience of physical sensation and imagery as a guide. It is recommended that participants have at least some prior ballet knowledge and experience.

Tsuki combines Vaganova Ballet Technique with somatic principles to deliver classes accessible to beginners as well as professional dancers. With a deep somatic practice including BodyMind-Centering, Feldenkrais, Butoh & Yoga ; Tsuki makes sure students find mobility through comfort and deep listening. Ballet technique is a classical form, with many individual pathways of access.

Amie-Blaire Chartier

Amie-Blaire Chartier is a freelance dancer based in Berlin, Germany. Originally from Vancouver, Canada, Amie-Blaire graduated from Ryerson University’s Dance program in 2016. In 2017, she was awarded a scholarship for the NOD internship in Turin, Italy. Here she had the privilege of learning from choreographers such as Tom Weinberger, Ella Rothschild, Sita Ostheimer and others. As a freelancer, she has worked throughout Europe with choreographers such as Yotam Peled, Liliana Barros, Shahar Binyamini, Franka Marlene Foth, and performed work by Ohad Naharin.  While establishing her base in Berlin, she has also become a founding member of the project based company, Yotam Peled & the Free Radicals. While feeling immensely grateful for the work she has been a part of, Amie-Blaire still finds a great source of inspiration by continuously questioning what it means to be a dancer and how both movement and emotions transcend into the communities around us.
