Impulstanz Workshop (visual journaling)
My last week at ImPulsTanz.
I couldn't have been happier than with this workshop being my last at the ImPulsTanz Festival. The Coles sisters (yes, they are sisters, but Louise has renamed herself Sri) were amazing. And professional - and that's not always a given when talking about ImPulsTanz teachers. Juliana Coles is literally the pioneer of Extreme Journaling, and Sri Louise is just such a guru. What we did:
In the morning we practiced yoga for a couple of hours before moving into the visual journal making, and at the end of the day we would "take it into the space" (ah, dance expressions!). It was one of the most engrossing courses I attended at the festival and I can not imagine a better finale.
Above is one of the journal pages I made. But you can see Juliana's much more impressive work here or at her flickr account.
That was it for my danceWEB residency at ImPulsTanz 2009. Looking back at the good times, hard times, intense times, naked times - it all kind of felt like stepping into a parallel universe for five weeks. Definitely a recommendable experience.
