Harvest Moon
Harvest your creativity!
As the exact schedule is still being finalised and we are still open to contributions and discussing partnerships in the region, we would like to use this opportunity to briefly outline the planned content.
Joris & Zoé
At the HMDC Weekend 2, Joris & Zoé open up a creative playground rooted in the living environment of the Ecosphere farm. Through a mixed program of creativity workshops spanning from dance/ movement, music and more, you’ll discover new forms of expression, deepen your dialogue with others, explore the natural environment as both inspiration and collaborator, and harvest the creativity that’s already inside you. All are welcome — bring your curiosity!
Planned classes:
1. Couple teaching (Joris & Zoé)
Joris & Zoé bring one hour of energy that will carry the whole farm through their best compilation of movement exercises and dance games. This session examines partnering as a practice of mutual support, communication, and creative exchange. We will continue to develop physical awareness, responsiveness, and ensemble skills. One and one makes… a team effort!
2. Music, mime & storytelling (Joris)
Let’s mix mime and music into an exciting and unpredictable result. Musical mime is a performance art that blends the physical storytelling of traditional mime with synchronized music to enhance emotional impact and narrative flow. Unlike silent mime, we will use melody and rhythm as a “voice”, allowing us to convey internal thoughts and external actions through carefully timed gestures that match the soundtrack.
3. „The Art of Falling“ (Zoé)
What if falling wasn’t something to avoid, but something to master? This class reclaims the fall as a fundamental movement intelligence. Drawing from contact improvisation, contemporary dance and other somatic practices, we explore how to yield, spiral, and dissolve toward the ground with curiosity and control. You will develop proprioceptive awareness, trust, and a new relationship with gravity. Rediscover the fun of falling!
Giuseppina
Giuseppinas reichhaltiges pädagogisches Repertoire wird sich auf verschiedene Weisen in unserem Programm wiederfinden.
1. Lindy for Beginner and Kids:
Zum einen werden wir in kurzen Einheiten Tanzstunden für Kinder anbieten, in welchen auf spielerische Art und Weise die Grundlagen im Lindy Hop erlernt werden können. Je nach Altersgruppe und Anmeldungen können die ersten Tanzerfahrungen auch in Form einer kleinen Solo Jazz Routine erschlossen werden. Diese Kurse werden sich auch für die erwachsenen Einsteigenden eignen und sicher alles sehr viel Spaß bereiten.
2. Reguläre Kurse
Andererseits sind klassische Kurse in den bekannten Leveln geplant, die ihr bei der Anmeldung auswählen könnt. In Abstimmung mit den Inhalten von Joris & Zoé werden wir hier natürlich für beste Abwechslung sorgen!
