WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION Countertechnique Founder Anouk van Dijk returns to New York! This three-day workshop offers fresh fuel for the year ahead. How to add longevity to your dance career? How to keep things interesting for yourself? Our ever-changing bodies need different care and stimulants every single day, and in this workshop, we look at how to keep a positive and creative work ethic, even when circumstances are not in our favour.
The workshop will start with a 2hr Countertechnique class, followed by a 1hr Practical Tools session, which will introduce different tools each day. After lunch, we will bring Countertechnique Tools into creation and performance, and explore how specific tools and tasks can support us beyond the class format. Departing from some of Anouk’s choreographic working methods, we will look at the eb and flow of the creation process, performance seasons and touring. How to tackle the challenges we encounter, and remain inspired in a sustainable way?
The Countertechnique class and Practical Tools session are all about enabling dancers to move bigger, more fluidly and more spatially, while becoming more aware of their surroundings. The creative workshop segment will be aimed at professional dance artists and senior dance students who look for inspiration to contribute in the creative process, as well as to keep dancing interesting while maintaining a healthy and joyful work ethic. Be prepared to work proactively, think creatively, and perform at a high physical level.
