TEAM MIMAGES / WAT IS EURITMIE? … HEEL PERSOONLIJK BENADERD
De deelnemers van WS/A en gedeeltelijk van WS/C werken met volgende Docenten: WS1 Friederike Heine (Euritmiste/Performer) / WS2 Bettina Grube (Euritmiste, Performer) / WS3 Lisa Dunker (Euritmietherapeut, Pedagoge, Performer) / WS4 Martine Meursink (Therapeut) / WS8 T. Mimages / WS6 T. Mimages / WS7 T. Mimages / WS8 T. Mimages / WS9+10 Lara Brummans (Pedagoge) & Mayumi Eguro
In elke sessie binnen deze workshop werkt iemand anders uit de euritmie-scène met de deelnemers. En hij of zij duikt onder in een heel persoonlijkeigen visie op deze vraag. Welk begrip heb ik door mijn ervaringen met deze kunst in deze tijd ontwikkeld? Welke aspecten zijn voor mij wezenlijk geworden en hoe zet ik die om in mijn kunst en in mijn spreken over euritmie? Het gaat hier dus niet om definieren. Veel meer zoeken deze collega’s naar het nog niet ontdekte potentiaal. En ze ontwikkelen daarbij eigen aanzetten en een eigen visie.
Het wordt hier dus heel bont. De belevenissen zullen uiteenlopen en enthousiasme wekken.
FRIEDERIKE HEINE / RESONATING BODIES
What if body and space act together and create their own rhythm with each other? What kind of dialogue, what kind of choreographies emerge? When we open ourselves to what is happening around us and take it as impulses we can transform and (re)act with, we generate a common space together where bodies and space are equally involved and communicate with each other in liveliness. How can we open that resonance space within and around us? What resonates when we listen to the in-between spaces, how do we respond? With different performative strategies, presence and perception work, we will explore with our bodies and objects (long wooden rods) what a resonating body could mean.
BETTINA GRUBE / GRIECHISCHE RHYTHMEN
5 workshop-sessies met Bettina over GRIEKSE RITMES: „…In der Entstehungszeit der Eurythmie geschaffene griechischrhythmische Tanzbewegungen bieten eine sinnvolle Vorübung für jegliche Bühnendarstellung.“
MELAINE MAC.DONALD / EXPLORING LIFE SYSTEMS OF THE HUMAN BODY, BASED ON THE APPROACH OF BODY – MIND – CENTERING
In a series of eight 90-minute sessions I will introduce and open up areas of exploration concerning different layers and life-systems of our bodies. After an overall 1) introduction and space to arrive in the first session we will work in the remaining 7 sessions with 2) the carrying structure of the skeleton; 3) the dynamic and containing muscle-system; 4) the quality of our inner spaces and their contents, our organs; 5) the “ocean in us” referring to our inner water and the differentiation of our inner fluids; 6) certain aspects of embryonal development which underlie all systems; 7) our relation to the different life forms (i.e. from the simplest one-cell life forms to the more complex organisms of mammals) and their patterns of movement; 8) Rounding up.
In every session, exploration through movement and touch will play a large role as well as observation and the sharing of perceptions. The function, form, consistency of for example the skeleton opens a different field of discovery than do the fluids. Yet they are absolutely in sync with one another. What is the “mind” of the skeleton or of specific fluids? In which area of consciousness and creativity do I find myself when I let these and other layers of myself begin to “speak” through my movement, including stillness. The experience of each system when embodied in movement becomes expression. Emerging expression sparks creativity which is the current running through this learning process. Looking forward to working together!

Melaine MacDonald
Friederike Heine
Friederike Heine works across different disciplines between social and art contexts, driven by her desire to create spaces for deep transformation. Educated in Eurythmy and trained in contemporary dance, performance and vocal practices, she works with the body as a door into unknown accesses in order to tap into new potentials of identities and ways of seeing the other. Holding a queer-feminist perspective she creates soft spaces of togetherness.

Melaine MacDonald
Melaine's roots go back to Seattle, Wa. USA where she was born and raised. Her work with Eurythmy brought her to Germany which became her home and base from which she has been working, teaching and performing since 1977 after completing her Eurythmy training first in Emerson College England in then finishing in the Eurythmeum Stuttgart with Else Klink. Teaching and performing first in the Eurythmy Training and Stage Hamburg led by Carina Schmid for 16 years, then a decade of freelancing followed by a period of 14 years in the Eurythmy Department of the Alanus Hochschule until summer 2020 made for a rich and varied life with Eurythmy and related movement disciplines. In the last few years she began to further her experience and knowledge of the incarnate human being through the studies and approach of Body Mind Centering (BMC). This research community began through the work of the American dancer, therapist, movement/consciousness explorer Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen and now encompasses the world with 15 training centers. Module-based part time studies offer an experiential and physiological exploration of the human body/life systems. Melaine is currently in the BMC training, soon to complete the first phase of Somatic Movement Education and then going onto the practitioner Program. The eurythmic work has accompanied her intensively all the while.
