LA DANZA IN RELAZIONE
FLOOR WORK, PARTNERING e IMPROVVISAZIONE
Workshop intensivo con Gabriella Maiorino
Il lavoro di Gabriella, sviluppato negli ultimi 15 anni di lavoro tra Olanda e Italia come insegnante, coreografa e performer, si basa su sull’ utilizzo estremamente dinamico di diverse forme del peso e su una visione del corpo come intenso, aperto e sempre in relazione.
Attraverso l’esplorazione del lavoro con il partner, il pavimento ed elementi reali o visionari fuori e dentro il performer, propone lo studio profondo di particolari sfumature di peso e di ricerca sul movimento: dal corpo come oggetto al constant flow, dall’inibizione del peso alla qualita’ viscerale alla ricerca delle poliritmie del peso.
Elementi fisici, percettivi ed emotivi si incontrano per sviluppare un linguaggio originale, molto fisico e con accento particolare sulla musicalita’, attraversando lo studio di materiale coreografico, di principi di improvvisazione e di contact improvisation.

DANCE IN CONNECTION – FLOOR WORK, PARTNERING and IMPROVISATION
INTENSIVE WORKSHOP with GABRIELLA MAIORINO
The work that Gabriella proposes is based on an extreme and dynamic use of the weight in its various forms and on a strong vision of the body as intense, open and always in relation.
As choreographer, performer and teacher in Holland, Italy and Europe in the last 15 years Gabriella developed a specific and original research on the body that is composed by physical, perceptive and emotional elements which merge together in an original movement language.
Her exploration of the work with a partner, with the floor and with real or imaginary elements inside and outside the performer leads to a deep study of the particular nuances of weight and movement research, such as: the body as an object, the constant flow, the inhibition of the weight, the visceral quality and the research of the polyrhythm of the weight.
This vocabulary is highly physical and focuses particularly on the aspect of musicality while going through the study of choreographic material, principals of improvisation and of contact improvisation.
Italian Dutch based choreographer, Gabriella graduated in the Theaterschool of Amsterdam/ SNDO department for Choreography in 2002 where she studied modern dance, release, ballet, contact improvisation and flying low.
Since 2002 all her ceations have been produced in Holland and performed in Italy, Holland, belgium, England, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Norway, Poland, Romania, Brazil. She also created choreographies for venues such the Rijks Museum and the Eye Film Museum in Amsterdam
GABRIELLA MAIORINO/CLANCARNAL
In 2013 she creates her own dance company CLANCARNAL together with Valentina Campora and Adrian Sneeuw.
She is often invited to teach in dance academies (ARTEZ in Arnhem, Theaterschool in Amsterdam, CODARTS in Rotterdam, HJS in Amsterdam, IALS Roma, ZONA D Buchaest) and many different venues and festivals (ZIP Orvieto, Dansateliers Rotterdam, Casina settarte, Stalker teatro, Opificio dell’arte Biella, UMBRIA GIOVANI, Bolzano, etc.) her special combination of improvisation, floor work and visionary/carnal approach to movement.
“the work of Gabriella is recognized as intense, energetic and full of strong images, brave and deeply original”.

Gravity is an exciting and useful tool to use with momentum. We can open to the “slide and the ride” and find the deep pleasure in perpetual motion. So let’s take this ride together, and find how momentum opens us to surprise and grace in our dancing! Through informed touch and inquisitive movement we will explore the strength, mobility and lightness of our legs, pelvis, and ribs. We will apply these tools for giving and receiving information as well as navigating easeful pathways to and from the floor. We will expand our capacity for low level and high level falling as a doorway into improvisation. We will be sure to continue nourishing our bodies after the festival with long warm-ups, bodywork, and deep listening that naturally leads to easy connected pathways into dancing!
Brando (Aaron Brandes) teaches CI internationally. He serves on the Board of Directors for Earthdance and has worked with CI programing there since 2005. Brando has been instrumental in creating CI Ground Research, which encourages the ongoing research of contact improvisation by dancers from around the world. He trained with Tom Myers at the KMI Institute and is a certified Fascial Bodywork/Structural Integration practitioner. Brando’s pedagogical approach is combination of humor (inherent in this divinely awkward dance form), anatomical mapping, and his extensive background in meditation. The combination of technical specificity in CI with the deep and nuanced listening creates the foundation for exploration in accelerated states of movement.

Shaina Cantino holds an MFA in Dance Performance and Choreography. Cantino teaches, directs and performs contemporary, dance theatre, improvisation and contact improvisation. Cantino’s choreography has received numerous accolades including being chosen for national performance at the Kennedy Center for the American College Dance Festival in 2010. Cantino has collaborated and performed in choreography by Angie Hauser, Chris Aiken, Kathleen Hermesdorf, Paul Matteson, and Colleen Thomas. Cantino explores humor in quirky grace, the edge between ‘pedestrian’ delivery of text and more poetic, highly physical movement. She is also interested in how our bodies are vehicles for re-conceiving, through sensory perception, the dynamic relationship between our environments, communities, and art.
