How to dance with a scandinavian body 


  • Loosening up the scandinavian body (you can do fighting moves, lifts and catwalk without tensing up in every muscle)


  • Listening not hearing - listening with your whole body to the space but especially your partner


  • Enjoying the state of not knowing and exploring and failing A LOT


  • The dance that "does not work" is also very much a choreography - all of a sudden what looked like a fall might translate into a lift or create momentum for a jump


  • Working with the dance of a collapsing body or a sick body as a choreography (Butoh)


  • You can change your body into an attitude - you can become an elegant sex demon or an anime ninja warrior even though you still very much feel like yourself - fake it till you make it 


  • Being aware of your "tendencies" - where you feel comfortable - and challenge that (for example with Nela moving from just one bodypart or just being introduced to a whole new way of moving with Tabanka)


  • Confronting the european way of working/dancing: "its an exploration, letting the body work for you" etc. In Tabanka you tell your body what to do and you tell the music what to do with your body


  • Working with the "small dance" - how little can you do before it is a dance?
