contemporary dance & improvisation - weekly class on a boat
Tuesdays at 19-20.30h in Kulturkahn Paula in Berlin, Rummelsburger See an der Halbinsel Stralau
A weekly dance training in a very special location; in a beautiful movement studio on the water, in the boat “Paula“ in Halbinsel Stralau, with scenic views to the Rummelsburger See.
In this class we work on different movement principles based on techniques of contemporary dance and improvisation, with influences from somatic movement practices, instant composition, floor work and release techniques, occasionally visiting other movement traditions and styles of dance as well. It is a holistic, fun and playful training that deeply anchors the participants into their bodies, where through a comprehensive somatic participation a genuine connection with our moving selves, others and our immediate surroundings can start to emerge. Technical skills are developed both through various approaches of movement research and fixed movement combinations / choreographies. An effortless, sustainable physicality and technique is encouraged; a body that is soft and receptive, yet awake, alert and perceptive – developing towards a natural, open, personal and deeply embodied dancing presence.
Some previous experience in contemporary dance or other forms of movement practices is required.

"I'm so happy I found Annukka's contemporary dance class about two years ago! It was something totally different to the dance schools and teachers I had experienced before. She creates an inspiring and warm atmosphere which allows you to explore your own way of moving while encouraging you to push your boundaries." Essi Rajakangas
"In our fast-paced lives we easily get caught up in our thoughts and lose the connection to our body and lose our state of flow as a consequence. Annukka's classes are one of the best remedies to the feeling of stuckness I've encountered so far. She has always succeeded in bringing me from a state of separation to a state of deep connectedness. In that state the arduous tasks in life transform into pleasant challenges. Annukka has a very unique talent of holding space and co-creating a strong group field that allows you to connect with yourself and those around you." Tessa Sophia
