Welcome to Gathering Dance at Höjden.
This is a monthly event open for professional dancers, choreographers and performers facilitated by Salka Ardal Rosengren.
I initiate this format to gather because I miss spending time in the studio with other dancers. The idea is that we meet to share practices, thoughts, ideas and reflections in a structured format. I hosted two events last autumn at MDT and will continue this spring at Höjden. The general idea is to have around three or four people having prepared something to share with the group for each session (around 30 min each), it could be something you’d like to try out with a group, it can be something old, new or blue – I just ask you to come prepared to host it. We work and then we break following a conversation.
I will facilitate the overall session but each person who shares lead their proposition.
Next session will be Friday the 15th of May at 10:00 - 14:00 at Höjden dance studio.
Please let me know if you will attend and if you’d like to share latest by Wednesday evening 13th of May. salkaros@gmail.com
I'd love to see you there,
Salka
