Dance alchemy

Friday
17:30-19:30
Movement will be used as a transformative tool to find meaning and connection. You will dance for the sake of others. We copy, but we're never the same. Any movement goes. We'll push boundaries, experimenting with telepathy and journeying through parallel universes via dance. It will be weird, and probably even touching. Whip out your skills or hide in the crowd—you'll look at movement and your dance in ways you haven't before.

Mike is a dancer, choreographer, and somatic bodyworker. His PhD research explored movement as a tool to blur mind, body and environment. Working at the intersection of cognitive science and dance since 2011, his artistic work articulates human perception as performative tools, specifically empathy and metaphor as ways of communicating. He teaches creative practice workshops throughout Europe to university students, teams and in retreat formats.
