Two Sessions for Dancing, with Kirstie Simson and Charlie Brittain

In honouring our body’s innate attraction and drive towards wholeness, balance, creativity & healing, we will explore embodied intelligence and imagination as we journey through guided movement explorations, shared dancing, and improvisational scores. Our work flows between independent, partner and group work where touch plays a role in facilitating opportunities for depth and experiential self- and collective learning – all movers are welcome. These sessions are an invitation to witness, together, the transformation that is realised through the challenging simplicity of experiencing our bodies in motion, affirming the poignancy of our human connectedness, and its implications for health and resilience in facing the universal and personal challenges of our lives today. Kirstie and Charlie’s ever-evolving collaboration is centred on their shared passion and dedication for dance and healing, which manifests through teaching, performing, and co-creating. It emerges from the grounding of care gleaned from their collective experience: 45 years of dedicated dance improvisation practice, professional performing careers, bodywork and holistic healing practices, pre-hospital emergency care and passionate, dedicated teaching practices. Their work expands as it is shared internationally and in the diverse contexts of dance, healthcare and, Life.
