In these two days we will navigate between Aikido, Bodywork and Improvisation.

Our practice will focus on developing our own presence, the process of becoming healthy, and the joy of movement. Aikido starts with oneself. With one’s own posture. “Standing properly and straightening up, reaching up and opening the chest, only then can you breathe properly.” says Noboyuki Watanabe Sensei (8th Dan). The energy begins to flow. One’s own size and presence develops. The always newly created, open space, allows new possibilities in dealing with oneself and thereby the other.

Alga Bolokh deals with threatened places and spaces, with the untold and the invisible. www.claudiaheu.com
