The practice integrates the profound dance languages of Flying Low (FL)Passing Through (PT)Contact Improvisation (CI)Release Technique (RT)movement coordination of Somatics and Forsythe Improvisation Technologies (FIT) together with spiritual and healing modalities YogaQigongThai & Abdominal MassageCraniosacral, meditation as well as philosophies of Buddhism, Hinduism and Taoism.

Gliding Space | Teacher Training Course LV1 is a 4 weeks intensive dance course that is open for dance artists who have had good dance experience and education and good knowledge and practice in dance.

The course is designed for the dance artists who wish to not only to deepen their physical practice but also who are interested to integrate an eastern embodied practices and philosophies into their dance practice to achieve a wholesome experience of a body moving in space.

The aim and vision through this practice is to create a holistic dance training that can transform dance artists in their field of practice and recast the dance education in the 21st century. This integration allows a genuine connection throughout all bodies (Body, Mind, Heart, Spirit) to heal and find harmony within the self, with a relationship and in our communities. Throughout our dance education we pass through a lot of physical, emotional and psychological discomforts, even more severe injuries, that have a great impact in our life. The Gliding Space practice nurtures and addresses all bodies for a holistic communication and integration of all bodies, and furthermore to enhance the metaphysical aspects of the human organism.

The way the practice is taught is by focusing on how to genuinely hold space, create a safe practice/work environment, as well as lead a group of people to a great transformation within a professional dance field. We refer to as “healing” the integration and harmony of all ‘bodies’ of the human being, what in Greek we call Soma, for creating healthy and holistic relationships with the self, with an-other, with communities and with the world.

Welcome to the GLIDING SPACE Teacher Training Course where we will guide you to experience, embody and integrate in body, mind, heart and spirit. We feel that together can make a difference in the world and co-create a harmonious environment for all people.
