Methods in Motion: Laban/Bartenieff for Dance Improvisation is a twice-monthly, live online workshop program for current and future facilitators of dance improvisation. Grounded in Laban/Bartenieff Movement Studies (LBMS) and built from tried-and-true teaching notes, the series translates foundational ideas into accessible, teachable scores for diverse groups.
Tanzimprovisation mit Jungyeon Kim
Der Kurs besteht aus einer Kombination von Körperarbeit und Tanzimprovisation. Die Körperarbeit bietet eine gut fundierte Grundlage für Körpernavigation sowie Tanz- und Bewegungstechnik, vermittelt durch Anatomie, taktile Begleitung, Übungsabfolgen und Bewegungsexploration. Aus dieser Phase und den damit verknüpften inneren Bildern und Empfindungen entwickelt sich freier Tanz, dessen Inspirationen und Impulse sich mit jedem Kurstag erneuern.
Für die Teilnahme ist keine Vorerfahrung erforderlich; die körperliche Kondition oder der Altersabschnitt spielen keine Rolle. Worauf es ankommt, ist vor allem die Lust und Neugierde auf das
spielerisch-schöpferische Experimentieren in Bewegung, sowie das Interesse an künstlerischen und erforschenden Ansätzen im Hinblick auf Körper- und Bewegungsausdruck.

Franco-German Youth Exchange
"SO SLOW, SO LANGSAM, SI LENT"
14th-21st December 2025 in Bergerac, France
Young people residing in Germany, in the age between 18 and 30, can apply to take part. The project provides accommodation, meals and workshops entirely, and supports the travel cost in part.
Step out of the rush and into a week of movement, dance, cultural exchange and collective creation in rural Nouvelle-Aquitaine. No French needed — your body is your language. Explore local culture, co-create with Compagnie des Limbes, and close with a “Slow Ball” performance.
"SO SLOW" is a cross-border dance project exploring tempo, attention, and care—inviting participants to experience movement beyond urgency. The work unfolds through workshops, in-process
sharings, and a performance that centers slowness as a practice of presence and relation. Apply now.
