Workshop ‘ECHO’ – Rosa Allessie & Wies Berkhout
In this 4 week course you will learn repertoire from the piece ‘ECHO’. Rosa Allessie & Wies Berkhout created this contemporary duet that will premiere at DansBlok in de Oude Sterrewacht (June 30th & July 1th). Rosa will teach the workshops, sometimes assisted by Wies.
ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP
The classes will start with a warm-up to enhance your body- and spacial awareness, followed by exercises for coordination, strength and creativity. We will research the movement qualities and narratives that were used to create ECHO. During 1 or 2 of the classes we will focus on the partnering used in the duet. A big part of the class will be spend on repertoire; so learning material of ECHO.Trailer ECHO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZK6CvqUCqGM&feature=youtu.be

ABOUT ECHO
Echo is about the universal search for recognition and for your own identity. To do that, everybody subconsciously imitates other peoples behavior and body language. We were inspired by movement patterns of planets and how everything in the universe is connected trough gravity.
