Relatedness In Motion
The Relatedness in Motion intensive is an exceptional opportunity to explore Rudolf Laban's principles and practice focussing on relationship structures within the expressive body.
The Relatedness in Motion Course will take place 9-13
July 2012
Please note this course is now fully booked.
This 5 day practical course will investigate movement in terms
of its relatedness content from Laban to contemporary expressive
arts. Participants will gain understanding of how we embody
relationships within our own body and between ourselves and others,
in both the body language of everyday life and within choreographic
art. You will also explore the intrinsic structures of
movement and how they inter-relate; as Laban wrote:
"Movement is one of man's languages and as such it
must be consciously mastered. We must find its real structure
and the choreological order within it through which movement
becomes penetrable, meaningful and understandable." Laban, R.
Choreutics (London, MacDonald and Evans Ltd, 1966),
p.viii
As an analytical tool for observing, creating, performing
and directing performance,
choreological studies enables participants to evaluate
their practice, providing the means to develop, enhance and
facilitate theory in studio-based scholarship.
We welcome people from all backgrounds and disciplines aged 18+,
you may be a dancer, actor or teacher, theatre director or movement
facilitator. You will learn fundamentals of relatedness
structures and apply them creatively and analytically, expanding
and developing your knowledge through the highest quality teaching
in our state-of-the-art facilities.
The course is co-led by Valerie Preston-Dunlop
(author of award winning Rudolf Laban: An Extraordinary Life and
co-author with Sanchez-Colberg of Dance and the Performative) and
Rosemary
Brandt (internationally known teacher of choreological
practice) with Melanie Clarke
(choreographer, dancer, notator and reconstructor of Rainer's Trio
A) Ali Curtis- Jones Component Leader for Choreological Studies at
Laban, along with other Choreological Studies practitioners for
