Poster Ideas For A Run
January 2008 meeting of the contact scriptural January 2008
"This moment, this second, never to be repeated. Live the magic moment with intensity as something exceptional can happen. "
"This moment, this second, never to be repeated. Live the magic moment with intensity as something exceptional can happen. "
"Dissolution of my identity"
Who are you?, We are not man or woman, we are .... One essence in the same space, energy flowing through your sound frequencies beyond all visible.
hear Daniel's voice that says: close your eyes and do not lose contact with your partner ...
Then I close my eyes ... and finally .... I can see! Activity
end in depth, the subtlety of my perception, in the dialogue of the invisible, in the space of the solution.
I diluted in water, ceased to exist in this skin, I become something else and I have every confidence in you, in the voice of Daniela, the energy that surrounds us all.
ceased to exist in the mind, there is nothing that makes me lose my attention, all my senses are here and now .... I'm not who I thought it was, I'm not where I was, is a new space where my identity is diluted, and I can see from the closure of the eyelids that evening with us in this experience.
"The extinction of the ego."
identity is dissolved, the ego dies, you see the light, vibrating silence, then I can see you and serve you.
Humility of our being made to float on clouds of color and our steps are unrepeatable and timeless creations.
"Where there is unity of duality ceases."
From the moment I meet you, my reverence for you I make a space for you where my being is reflected in every step you take.
Since you put your life in me, I melt into it and be two separate beings we are in the neutrality of silence, where no one outweighs the other, where no one knows more than the other, where neither dominates the other ... then .... Found
Unit ... Then ...
We talk from an empty space, prosperous and fertile.
"time place and circumstance."
Me stand before you, one to be like me, with different shapes, sizes, experiences and codes, a whole being full of surprises and twists. But a being, at last, after all, like me, comes light and vibrate in the ether. The energy moves, I'm just like you, you are like me ....
The heat passes our skin, Santiago ... ... and the humidity fogging our eyes, summer .... Move the leaves, the wind invites to dance .... Space.
you, I am .... I see .... I smell, no more, than a step forward and running water.
I'm about to you ... I am here to serve .... Put your trust, I can not betray it, I'm here now I see, I'm, you smell, you are ... .. breathe.
do you fear? Ask your interior
to nothing ... I answered your silence ....
We can go further. Beyond the body
A more pure power ... .. the universe flowing between us two .... They no longer exist to make room for another, a third, that vibrates from deep silence ...
Do you realize?
Something is happening, the weakness is disguised as dance and you and I and all of us to serve this divine grace that lives to teach us about ourselves ....
Do not you see?, At every moment, when your weight falls on the other and you melt in ... spectrum. Did not you see when looking at your inner eye appears ....
We are a mirror, I see in you and you look at me, I'm not man or woman, you are not visible in my mind, only the recipients of my being, my nervous system vibrates your frequency and enter the dance of the cosmos Here on earth, as areas of flesh and bone.
What I have to grasp?
To listen ... To hear your time, your breath ...
To listen to your signals and respond to them from intuition, not from my mind ...
To respect your being, place me in your place and you feel through the air covers us all ...
to be a place for you to explore without ... prejudice and without fear.
to be at your service so you can create freely ....
to reduce my speed or increase my energy to empathize with you and be one with you in the same water flow, which drags us into places of light, where there are no coincidences, but the findings that for everything there is perfect order if you leave flow from the union of two that make a third, which has its own life.
there a time, place and circumstance for everything .... In dance, in life, in the meetings to be ... our minds do not need to exist, we only used to manifest in this dimension ... and perfect.
"The Great Meditation
I am prepared to be with all my attention to you, to each of you in this moment, where there is nothing more than to be at your disposal ....
me away from myself to see you all in my detachment, I can see you and flow with you, everything becomes energy, no more, no identity, no mind, we are in the same stream and reach the sea together .
inhale, retain the air and we dive into the depths of experience, not me, not you, are one manifestation that responds to each stimulus in perfect harmony, because I listen to you because I see me because we are no longer paragraphs, we are the two currents flow found and go to the sea. Follow the wind cools
, no longer sees well what happens outside our
magnetic field ... So ....
We are in a great meditation .... I am from me, you ... aware of everything that moves and breathes around us, we are on the whole, we are part of it and are part of ourselves .... We are .... Unit.
heard someone say: I feel empty abyss .... And I want to continue his feeling when he says that is filled with the dissolution of duality, dissolution of ego, then we can see, there is no room for fear or for the mind, as the flow of river water, as when climbing in the rock, attention in the room and be done with certainty and direction ...
feel the wind blow in my face ... I feel you breathe ...
. Nightfall
we go home tired, sweaty ... brimming with heart, peaceful mind, a moon above us and smiled and I stare.
I'm here.
Dear Daniela and Eckhard Teachers and Friends seminar: this is what they gave me with his gentle way of offering their knowledge and experience was a great meditation
where I saw in me, reflected many things needed to be in another rung higher even from what I was. Thanks

Dark Brown Skin What Dress Prom
on what was the First International Contact Improvisation Dance
Encounter, a small word that embodies all that was created during this week experimental Contact. A humble room in UMCE (Metropolitan University of Educational Sciences) received more than 40 people, including teachers, assistants, musicians, students, translators and viewers.
Each day a marathon eight-hour improvisation, free and open Jams, a Historical Talk and Conferences Dance more interesting, artistic, spontaneous and creative ever witnessed.
The classes were conducted by seven guides, from Germany, Argentina and Chile (Valparaiso - Santiago). The invitation was open to teachers, each class would lead to full freedom in what and how to teach; appeared different methodologies, practices, approaches, objectives, content, principles and experiences that undoubtedly did flourish historical reflections on the teaching process CI learning. Contact
What is, is some sort of definition, how material is delivered, what relationship is between teacher and student, there a common methodology, it is necessary the use of touch is essential to improvisation, what are the limits of the IC set of principles that shape it, have any rule or regulation. Endless questions arise which need not necessarily or can be answered by the simple fact of reflexivity on the theme of the meeting is a great achievement.
There are two methodological issues must be recovered within the process, which contributed greatly to forge links between the participants and make a surprisingly rapid process of collective learning. On the one hand the use of the "pool" collective space verbalization post daily classroom experiences, a place of free participation place where feelings, doubts, wishes, comments, complaints, thanks, moods, any word or sound that you want to share with the group. Furthermore, the presence of Jams daily, which allowed assimilate the contents of a fun and unstructured, streamline the process of appropriation of material and time, enabling the release of contact dance, irreverence and irony appears necessary for any improvisation.
shared basic criteria can be distinguished by the seven teachers of the meeting, however, are the differences that become interesting. Every vision of the CI is unique, hybrid training of teachers plasma in each class and the way in which each student plays the material is in turn different. Flexibility is essential at all times, to guide the proposal, the state's own body and the person with whom dialogue is established. Within the infinite shades and proposals of each of the teachers who accompanied us is necessary to thank and trying to capture the essence of each point of view, reveal the focus of each activity, however simple or explicit may seem. Discover what distinguishes while joining in this great week. Cristián
Mirror: Address the information generated at every moment of improvisation, making the gesture and feeling like motion stimuli. Proposed to observe the speech itself corporeality and interpersonal relationship. Set the "vacuum" as the perception of touch absent vacuum to fill-it with the other permanent desire otherness of the body and incompleteness as mobilizing axis of the IC. Contextualize improvisation, spontaneous and fill it with content re-read it from different points of view. Paula
Sacur : Transit agile and fun between principles and contents of CI. Ability to enter the material directly, without preamble or hesitation. Contact as a tool for creating, installing the mounting problem of improvisation, what happens in the body when learning a Contact motor schema, how does re-live the spontaneous event and why it always appears a tendency to development of the phenomenon "dance." There is an aesthetic delight in the perception of the event repeatedly while technical skill involves the mere fact of repetition. Daniela Marini
: Opening sensitive. Expanded perception of the body from its physical layer, bones, organs, fluids, muscles, tissues and skin, to the subtle energy body. Consciousness is expanded beyond the visible boundaries of the skin, the contact is not limited to the touch and the body not only invisible to the eye. Exploring connections body acceptance speech and body; dialogue with oneself, with the other, space and perception.
Rocío Rivera: The body-place. The organism is a known territory, a container and contents. Re-discover the architectural possibilities of the body, explore the inside surface sensing, using touch as a topographical description, reliefs, bass, texture, temperature, form and matter. Make contact from the structural organization, the body proposed routes for the simple fact of having materiality. Journeys into the landscape of the other body. Alejandro Cáceres
: Breathing movement. Connecting systems body in a single dance, build the unity of the subject before finding another. See the inside, needs, opportunities, sounds, rhythms and beats. Experience contact distance, which is the limit of the body, which occupies space and how to bind regardless of touch. Develop body control in moving, managing energy and effort just to avoid impact with the ground or the other. Dialogue between the surfaces, organicity move to increase efficiency of movement. Experience the limits of perception. Daniela Schwartz
: Subtlety and awareness of the contact area. Be thorough and clear with the information generated and capacity building listening to the fullest, to investigate the limits of the organism itself and its limitless possibilities surprised. Create space within the body space, feel the micro mobility and the passage of movement from one place to another, the dissociation and body connection. How to achieve a state of tightness to allow the other to enter and enter my own, be in and out at the same time, empty expectations, no pre-conceived, release the mental intention not to expect results, experience the process and address to this at all times. Eckhard Muller
: Delivery and availability at the meeting. Establish physical connections from the center and toward the center, losing the fear of expansion in the moments uncertainty, confidence in the ability of re-organization of the body. Sense the direction of motion and generate opposition to keep the contact point and weight management center. Use the spiral to tighten against the forces and balance the body, be flexible without losing alignment and set the column shaft as structural support of the motion. Be generous in providing clear information and communicating.
CI This first meeting came about a community, a group of people with a lot of energy to extend the exploration beyond the classroom and make a regular practice of contact within our city. Formed bonds with people from neighboring countries like Argentina and Colombia and strengthened the link between locals and Porteños. It is time to create continuity, the meeting is a milestone, but the work of all is to stay in time, creating jams, organize meetings, contact teachers, taking lessons from them "students", write and reflect on IQ or any derivation, keeping in touch and create instances of collective growth. In the contact and the life is strength.
This invitation is open to everyone of us involved in this fellowship and of course who wishes to join, contact is an opportunity to live the here and now, listen, attend, accompany, guide, be flexible eliminate expectations, melt the ego, dialogue, body and word, to be honest, real, concrete, set limits, to push the boundaries and pass, be aware of, respect, caring, giving and receiving, receive, accept, release, intuition, trust and building community, being one with others and be one in itself.

Marc Cohn A Song For My Daughter
The Reconstruction himself in the other
experiential convene a meeting where several people, experiences, stories, apprehensions, concerns and sensitivities, it is a common space in the current context, especially where individuality is installed and from there it perceives the environment, others and the relationships we establish. So we know what surrounds us therefore ourselves and have a trial almost immediately after the image circumscribing another.
The contact and improvisation workshop proposes and invites to rebuild from the first act of listening to the way we relate to ourselves, the environment and consequently to others, developing a space of timelessness, or more like a revaluation of time as a way to recognition of the "happening in the body."
Occur in the body is an experience where they have different patterns (strengths, tensions, fears, etc.) that appear on collective practices (work with the other) developing an awareness through the body link and playful exploration that allows improvisation.
work with the other is a chance to see each other reflected, to understand that difficulties are one of the other in terms of complementarity and opposition, to understand that these are also those that allow the flow and performing experience dance company.
roles in constant motion and range fully dissipated, allowing the solution the dichotomy between self and you, finding a balance that does not focus on the recognition of roles, but rather in the constant presence and listening as a path to achieving both.
The journey through time and space, experience develops the dynamics of vacuum, or collection of a body that is built from a center that is temporarily own but which constantly ranks as the other, where the movement, its limited to the silence imposed musical meditative experience (similar to the practice of zazen.)
is perhaps for this reason that it is impossible to define the experience of contact-improvisation, since it embodies a number of levels and layers, which can only respond to the slogan of keeping the body present, be, feel, receive, flow, inspire and exhale, let it happen, perhaps within the meaning of Tao-te King:
Simplicity begets no
wishes Desirelessness
engenders peace and thus the world itself straightens.
(Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu, p. 123, translated by Gaston Sublette.)
dance seem that contact was always on a quest to straighten itself, following the end of the previous one, but we could add from experience, which straighten the other is a journey of constant renewal and meetings as in a fallen state proposed unwavering certainty immediately after half-time and the possibility of happening again in another one.
Perhaps, contrary to what we understand in the day to day, to give necessary, after all contact space puts us where we really exist, in and with the other, so the fall is simply a half-sense, because inevitably we are - with the other. Finally, there is no dichotomy.

Daniela Schwartz.
The improvisation contact seminar recently held in Santiago de Chile was and will be in memory, to next time, a human body, artistic, thoughtful, conscientious and above all emotional, where in a climate of silence and passivity could discover, look at us, sitting and dancing.
Teachers Eckhard Muller and Daniel Schwartz generated the atmosphere to reflect and practice around contact. Perhaps the fastest to reach our memory is the climate that the group was able to recognize, where everyone, and when I say everyone, I mean that regardless of backgrounds, disciplines, previous experiences, etc., we took to establish necessary to dance conventions in diversity, to accommodate the view that teachers exposed (To which I referred above.)
Hopefully we can remember and every time I dance with another, let us recall this week of multiple experiences, of many meetings, where for a moment, breathe in the stillness and joy teachers, which covered in listening to the group began to dance.
likewise grateful to the Chilean teachers who supported the initiative from his view and baggage, sharing methodologies, research and experiences with the group.
