The first Workshop day is the final day of admittance according to the teacher's decision, if your level is considerably different than the level of the Workshop, you are kindly asked to switch to a more appropriate one. Workshops and their symbols: o (open) - for all levels, people interested in bodywork and movement Beg (beginning level) - providing basic knowledge, no specific precognition required Int (intermediate level) - for dancers with some knowledge, skill-refreshment Adv (advanced level) - for dancers with extended knowledge Adv* (advanced level) - for professional dancers with extended knowledge Russell ADAMSON Week1: 20 - 24 July Contemporary Jazz Adv 13:50 - 15:35 Urban Styles Beg 18:15 - 20:00 Contemporary Jazz Aesthetic expansion of natural movement The Contemporary Jazz Class begins with the fundamentals of natural movements leading into the development of the body's technical resources such as the necessary turn-out of the legs from the hip joint. Leg extensions and the formal use of the arms in preparations are incorporated into some of the following exercises and phrases. The basic feeling of wholeness should remain the dominant characteristic of all the movements. There will be body stretches in continuous curves, both convex and concave as well as successional movement phrases as part of the centre work as an aesthetic expansion of natural movement. The technique by itself has the power to stimulate and release energy forces within the students in expressive and conscious application. The class ends with a long combination. Urban Styles Take it easy as you go! The Urban Styles Class is aimed at the general and beginner level dancer. The class is based on the street styles of Reggae Dance Hall, Funk, HipHop, and House Dance. The aim of the class is to give the participants a Taste and Feel of the styles in the form of small combinations, which are fused together and explained step by step. The class is highly energetic with the emphasis on the fun factor. Each style has its own natural flow. So let's feel the vibe, feel the flow and take it easy as you go! Russell Leon Adamson was born in Jamaica and moved to England with his family at the age of 10. He attained three city and guild certificates in electronics and engineering at Gloucester City College. His athletic abilities lead him to the Gloucester Youth Gymnastics team and to amateurs as well as Thai boxing. He carries the black belt status in various Martial Art Techniques. With this physical background he was granted a 4-year scholarship at the London School of Contemporary Dance. At the same time he took classes in Classical Ballet at the Central School of Ballet in London. He studied Ballet with Marian Lane and Laura Conners of the Royal Ballet School and 4 Company (UK) and Jazz with Deirdre Lowell and Wayne Babeist (Alvin Ailey Company), Daniela Lorenz (Matt Mattox Company), Charles Augins (USA) and also Claude Paul Henry (London) and Max Stone (New York). He also studied Modern with Bill Louther (Martha Graham and Alvin Ailey Company), Carolyn Carson and Jorma Uotinen (Helsinki City Theatre, Finland), Viola Farber from the Merce Cunningham Company, Jane Dudley and Robert Cohan from the Martha Graham Company. Russell Adamson is an innovative teacher, motivating his students to focus on their work, so they can do more than they expected. With his support many young dancers have chosen dance as their profession. He has also created many choreographies, which received a lot of recognition in Finland and abroad. During the last years he has worked as a performer for the National Ballet of Estonia, the Gala for the 6th International Baltic Ballet Festival (Riga, Lithuania) and for Marimekkos 50th birthday (2001 - 2004), amongst others. In addition he has worked with the Black Dance Festival in Vienna (2002 & 2003) and the Estonia Art and Culture Gala Night in Tallinn (2004). As a choreographer he has created his own work including: "Spirit of the Landscape" (Finland, 2005), a solo and duet with Rodney Williams for the Black Dance Festival (Vienna, 2005), "Flow" a solo (London, 2006), "Terrain" (Finland, 2006), a choreography for the opera La Traviata (Finland, 2006), "Episodes" for the Rainbow Jazz Festival (2007, Estonia), a choreography for the Higher Ground Gospel Concert (Finland, 2007), The Live Orchestral Music and visual effects show at the Estonia Concert Hall (Tallinn, 2007), a Funk & HipHop choreography for the Urban Culture Tour (Helsinki, 2007) and lately a choreography for the jazz opera Manon with the world premiere (Estonia, February 2008).

  • Master Thesis Re-Imagining Contemporary Choreography
    Master Thesis Re-imagining Contemporary Choreography: Exploring choreographic practices in the post-moving era NAME: ELENA NOVAKOVITS STUDENT NUMBER: 4086856 Supervisor: Laura Karreman Second reader: Chiel Kattenbelt Master Contemporary Theatre, Dance and Dramaturgy Utrecht University August 2018 1 Abstract Focusing on the European dance scene after the mid-1990s a great emergence of dance practitioners redefined what dance could be by enlarging their creative methods, tools and objects. The established incessant movement was no longer considered to be the central element of composition. Similar artistic strategies still prevail up to the present, where the boundaries seem to be expanding ever more. Stimulated by this, in my thesis I look at the latest choreographic practices and their implications on a post-moving era. Drawing on André Lepecki’s Exhausting Dance: Performance and the Politics of Movement (2006), Efrosini’s Protopapa PhD “Possibilising dance: a space for thinking in choreography” (2009) and Bojana Cvejić’s Choreographing Problems: Expressive Concepts in European Contemporary Dance and Performance (2015) I examine the expanded choreographic practices in the following choreographic works: 69 Positions (2014) by Mette Ingvartsen and Time has fallen asleep in the afternoon sunshine (2010) by Mette Edvardsen. My hypothesis is that Ingvartsen and Edvardsen’s performances are exemplary of these developments. On the performance analysis of these works, I have explored what they have presented as singular choreographic practices through their artistic strategies by activating specific tools and methods. The idea of ‘language choreography’ is discussed as a common place for both. In conclusion, my main aim has been to analyse and evaluate how contemporary choreography in this post-moving era has been redefined in these works and what the resulting implications are for making, performing and attending.

  • Sporting Legends: Katerina Witt
    SPORTING LEGENDS: KATERINA WITT SPORT: FIGURE SKATING COMPETITIVE ERA: 1979 - 1994 Katarina Witt is a German figure skater. Witt won two Olympic Gold Medals for East Germany, first in the 1984 Sarajevo Olympics and the second in 1988 at the Calgary Olympics. She won the world championships in 1984, 1985, 1987, and 1988. She also won six European championships. Her competitive record makes her one of the most successful figure skaters of all time. Witt was born on December 3, 1965 in Staaken (today part of Berlin, Germany/GDR). She went to school in Karl-Marx-Stadt, today reverted to its pre-Communist name Chemnitz. There she attended a special school for sports-talented children, named Kinder- und Jugendsportschule. She represented the club SC Karl-Marx-Stadt for the GDR (East Germany). Her coach was Jutta Müller since 1970. In 1984 Katarina Witt was voted as “The GDR female athlete of the year” by the readers of the East-German newspaper Junge Welt. In 1987 she recaptured the World Championship title, which she lost in the previous year to Debi Thomas. Many people consider her performance at this event to be the finest of her career. In 1988 Witt started a professional career, which was very unusual for East German athletes. At first she spent three years on tour in the United States with Brian Boitano, also a Gold Medal winner at the Winter Olympics in figure skating. Their show "Witt and Boitano Skating" was so successful that for the first time in ten years New York's Madison Square Garden was sold out for an ice show.

  • A Choreographer's Handbook
    A Choreographer’s Handbook On choreography: ‘Choreography is a negotiation with the patterns your body is thinking’ On rules: ‘Try breaking the rules on a need to break the rules basis’ A Choreographer’s Handbook invites the reader to investigate how and why to make a dance performance. In an inspiring and unusually empowering sequence of stories, ideas and paradoxes, internationally renowned dancer, choreographer and teacher Jonathan Burrows explains how it’s possible to navigate a course through this complex process. It is a stunning reflection on a personal practice and professional journey, and draws upon five years of workshop discussions, led by Burrows. Burrows’ open and honest prose gives the reader access to a range of exercises, meditations, principles and ideas on choreography that allow artists and dance-makers to find their own aesthetic process. It is a book for anyone interested in making performance, at whatever level and in whichever style. Jonathan Burrows has toured and worked internationally as a dancer and choreographer and is currently a resident artist at Kaaitheater Brussels. In 2002 he was commended by the Foundation for Contempor- ary Performance Arts in New York for his contribution to contemporary dance, and in 2004 received a New York Dance and Performance ‘Bessie’ for his work ‘Both Sitting Duet’. He has made commissioned work for many companies, including William Forsythe’s Ballett Frankfurt, Sylvie Guillem and The Royal Ballet. He is a visiting member of faculty at P.A.R.T.S. in Brussels and is a Visiting Professor at Hamburg University and Royal Holloway University of London.
