CLASS: FROM FOLK TO FUSION

With Balfolk fundaments as a base (e.g. the “Scottish”) we’ll open up for creative dance dialogues, focused on connection and mindful listening, based in Contact Improvisation and somatic approach. We will break out of dance schemes to co-create new possibilities. 


TEACHERS - 3 March

- Natalia Klamann 
is an internationally known balfolk festival and event organiser and teacher from Poland. Her dance background is diverse: contact improvisation, contemporary dance, tango, flamenco, tribal fusion bellydance,... She is particularly interested in a somatic approach in movement inspired by the Body Mind Centering method, yoga and mindfulness.

LET'S BLEND ALL DANCE SCENES INTO A NEW TRIBE!

‘Kula’ means community, tribe friendship, school, to stick together. My vision is to bring people of all cultures, ages, backgrounds, dance scenes &amp; schools together in a playful, tender, adventurous, steamy, safe, heartfelt dance night.
Come with an open heart. No judgements, only free expression within the safe boundaries of consent.


KULA DANCE
https://linktr.ee/kuladance

I'm Lene Van Steenwinkel, a Dance/Movement Therapist &amp; Anthropologist, who loves dancing with tribes/cultures all over the world, to explore the healing power of dance. 
In 2018 I founded Kula Dance to create a conscious community in Ghent. I offer Embodied Dreamwork, Consensual Intimacy, Women Circles, Nature Connection &amp; individual/group Dance/Movement Therapy. I discovered Fusion Dance at Burning Man and would love to create a Fusion scene in Ghent! 


GUIDELINES EVENT

- Consent is key. Ask &amp; respect a "no”.
- Everyone can invite each other (non-)verbally to dance a(nother) song.
- Check in with your dance partner: do you want to lead, follow or switch roles?
- Ask if your partner is comfortable with a close embrace, with lifts or dips.
- Does a dance feel uncomfortable? Be creative: how can I make it a pleasant/inspiring experience? Express your needs and boundaries. At any time you can end a dance.
- There are spaceholders you can ask support to &amp; that insure a safe concensual space.
- If someone felt uncomfortable in the interaction with you, listen attentively, give apologies if needed &amp; learn from the experience.
- This is an alcohol-free dance party.
- Between the opening and closing circles, conversation is kept to a minimum, for example, to ask consent or to ask a question during the class. We stay as much as possible out of the mind, in the body.
