TITOLO PROGETTO: "Inspire Contact Improvisation"

RICHIESTA PROVENIENTE DA: Adrià Sonet (Spagna)

TIPOLOGIA: Training Course

ARGOMENTO: “Inspire Contact Improvisation” is the connection between two apparently separate worlds: Contact Improvisation and Youth Work. Contact Improvisation is a dance form based on the spontaneous communication between moving bodies that are in physical contact. We intend to explore the applicability of this methodology in youth organisations working with young people with fewer opportunities. Contact Improvisation is a resource that can be used to promote inclusion, to work on the physical contact between people, to develop self-acceptance and to improve the active listening and awareness towards others.

“Inspire Contact Improvisation” is the connection between two apparently separate worlds: Contact Improvisation and Youth Work. Contact Improvisation is a dance form based on the spontaneous communication between moving bodies that are in physical contact. We intend to explore the applicability of this methodology in youth organisations working with young people with fewer opportunities. Contact Improvisation is a resource that can be used to promote inclusion, to work on the physical contact between people, to develop self-acceptance and to improve the active listening and awareness towards others.
Our objectives are:
• Introduce Contact Improvisation and its philosophy as an innovative methodology with broad potential from the artistic, pedagogical and social point of view, to youth workers and educators, providing tools that can be applied in their projects.
• Explore Contact Improvisation as an inclusive dance, enabling participants to question gender stereotypes, physical or age differences, finding attunement with themselves and others through non-judgemental body expression.
• Educate the holistic awareness of oneself and others, emphasizing the learning process through a balance between body and mind.
• Discover the physical, emotional and psychic benefits of human contact, dissociating it from the sexual perspective.
• Initiate an international network of organizations that are willing to include Contact Improvisation as a powerful resource in their future projects, both in the local and international level.
The target group we aim to offer this experience to are educators and youth workers actively involved in our partner organizations and working with youngsters on a regular basis. On another level, we also want to extend this opportunity to trainers and facilitators who are interested to include Contact Improvisation tools and exercises in their workshops and projects. “Inspire Contact Improvisation” is a project that contains one activity, a training course. It will take place in tragantCAMP (L'Alzina, Spain) during 7 days, from 25/10/2017 until 31/10/2017 (including travel days). It will gather 25 participants coming from 12 different countries: Spain, Italy, Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, Greece, Slovakia, UK, Bulgaria, Estonia and Latvia.
