The Bartenieff Fundamentals convey insights into the early development of movement and allow an experience of the basic principles of movement. In simple exercises and six fundamental body patterns (‚Basic Six’) they offer an instruction to perceive and extend the connection to one’s own body. It addresses everyone interested in a deeper understanding of movement.
 
The workshop can be used as a prerequisite for the EUROLAB Certificate Program in Laban/Bartenieff Movement Studies (www.eurolab-programs.com).

Accessibility Note

The workshop will be held in English and/or German spoken language in consultation with the group. There will be partner work, but touch is never mandatory. If participants are comfortable with touch, exercises that support energy pathways, connections and movement impulses in the body will be part of the work. We will work with anatomical and imagined images, with music and interaction in dance and with the joy of the individual aspect of moving and dancing. If needed, a free workshop place for an accompanying assistant will be facilitated for participants with disabilities. Information about our location & studio access in Kreuzberg, which unfortunately are not wheelchair accessible, can be found here. For questions or more information, please contact Zoé Duflot & Elisabeth Leopold at workshop@tanzfabrik-berlin.de.
