SWITCH POST FAILURE POTENTIAL? SATURDAY 18TH & SUNDSAY 19TH MAY 11-6 \u00a380 email Rob at wainsgatedances@gmail.com to book We are hugely looking forward to this… Makisig Akin and Anya Cloud, two brilliant artists and teachers in the UK for the first time via the USA and Berlin, to lead this workshop… Don’t miss it.\u00a0The workshop follows their performance of We are (nothing) everything on Friday 17 May.\u00a0Through our ongoing dance research of queer love centered survival practices this workshop is a re-entry into the question\u00a0“What can we do together that we cannot do alone?”\u00a0What if inviting otherness\/queerness can give us the space necessary to find, decide, construct, destroy, reinvent, and take-on expanding ways of being and inhabiting the multiplicity of you, me, and we?\u00a0We will work with falling into failure onwards from failure into the beginning, radical solo body readiness, discerning risk-taking, soft disoriented expansiveness, ways of being tethered, holding\/beholding\/being held, searching for that which is delicious, loverhood, endurance practices, getting lost, switching, touch, celebrating, and more.\u00a0We will keep re-inventing ways to be wet and pleased. We will build skills for navigating around that which has potential to be fatal. We invite you to take a journey with us \u2014 of falling in love \u2014that changes us in ways that might give us more capacity in the world.\u00a0What is possible when love is stronger than fear?\u00a0We will practice taking care as we traverse the complex `realities of being racialized and gendered bodies in relationship with one another. This will be a queer, trans, and BIPoC centered space.\u00a0Through our intersectional identities, we will draw on practices of the basic fundamentals of Traditional Northern Style Kung Fu Chinese Martial Arts, contact improvisation, improvisation, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Feldenkrais\u00ae, dance making, activism and how these ideologies can be implemented in our dancing bodies.\u00a0The workshop will be taught in spoken English and is open to all levels and abilities. There will be durational scored improvisational dancing practices that include physical contact, disorientation, momentum, impact, and resting.\u00a0This workshop will train our reflexes, developing fast decision making and utilizing how to move with more understanding of how the floor\/environment can support us. There will also be options\/adaptations as needed.\u00a0The research material also includes building skills and practices of agency, consent, touch, positionality, generosity, endurance, risk-taking, decision-making, and collaboration. We will develop our individual and collective capacity through dancing and verbal discussion. Let\u2019s deeply sensitize and activate our dancing capacities as humans from many different orientations.\u00a0Let\u2019s keep finding strategies to be softly hardcore.\u00a0We will DANCE.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wainsgate.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15223"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wainsgate.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wainsgate.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wainsgate.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wainsgate.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15223"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/wainsgate.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15223\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15429,"href":"https:\/\/wainsgate.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15223\/revisions\/15429"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wainsgate.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15223"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
