Women - Land - Ancestry

Environmental movement summer retreat for women

Exploring core ‘senses’ of traditional African dance

* Feet to earth * An awakened spine

* Internal landscapes * Relationship with the environment

* Connection to ancestry * Sound as a landscape

Our lives are a dance in connection to the cosmos

The landscape we travel is a shared landscape of body & soul

Here we re-discover that which is true within us

14th - 16th June 2013

(plus 17th June optional - focusing on integration into an African dance framework)

Leusdon Memorial Hall & surrounding (River, Tor, Hillside), Dartmoor, Devon

£105 early bird (paid before 31 May), £120 advance, £135 full

concessions, half price student places and bursary places available

accommodation not included - campsites, hostels & b&bs nearby

This 3/4 day course will include indoor and outdoor scores for improvised movement, sound and breath work, walking as a receptive modality, mark-making, free writing and time for sharing. Attention will be given to what it is to be a woman in the landscape, reclaiming our lived relationship with the land and awakening intuitive body-earth wisdom. The course is open to all women.

* Ground your dance practice and re-align body and soul in communication with the land, releasing the idea that we are separate from her and each other

* Drop into the heart of the depth of connection with landscape from which traditional African dance arises, awakening intuitive body-earth wisdom

* Develop your body’s kinaesthetic sense and follow her responses to internal and external landscapes and soundscapes

* Reclaim a lived relationship between body, land and ancestry

Women Land Ancestry is part of the She Who Walks project exploring female ancestry, the female body in relation to landscape and the arising of intuitive body-earth wisdom. The project culminates in site-specific promenade performances at Mel Tor, Dartmoor , 21st & 22nd September 2013. Workshop participants will be invited to take part in the final sequence of the performance at Mel Tor on 22nd September – A Walking Score for many women to close the performance.

BBMM2013 (British Black Music Month 2013) Heads Up: Debate, Live Music & Talking Copyright Whilst you have to wait till the mid-May official launch of BBMM2013 programme in order to book, we thought we'd give BBM/BMC subscribers some BBMM2013 heads-up. After 10 years or so during which the term "black music" has been used hundreds of times in our website, emails and offline events, we've decided to grapple with a terminology that underpins our very existence. The 'What Is Black Music?' debate takes place on Saturday June 1 at the Marylebone campus of the University of Westminster. As a departure from previous debates, this will be short and very concise. affair. However those interested in deliberations would be glad to know that it forms part of an all-day series of seminars organised as a soft launch of the university's Black Music Research Unit. You can wrap up the evening by joining us for some real, souuulful, live music. We'll be joining the MusicConnex crew for the MCX Live Showcase, which is the official BBMM2013 launch live event. This showcase is MCX's biggesty yet. It features two US and six UK artists, consisting of Honey Larochelle (Brand New Heavies), Acantha Lang, Tasita D'Mour, Izzy Bizu, Nate Williams, Sherry Davis, Root and Groove Element, and Charlene.

We're organising this in association with MMF (Music Managers' Forum) at MMF's new premises in Tileyard Studios, north of King's Cross.

Visiting Arts Provides tools to the arts, heritage and cultural sectors to work more intelligently and efficiently abroad.

UK funds for the arts are becoming increasingly difficult to access. Visiting Arts can help you consider funds available throughout the EU.

Workshops are led by experienced European and international project managers and include group discussion and a chance to develop new ideas for funding applications. In the afternoon session, Yvette Vaughan Jones will help you navigate the mental and structural process of putting together an international project. In a hands-on approach, you will investigate the "why, how and with whom" of international working.

London: Friday, 28 June 2013 @ V&A Museum
Presented in partnership with V&A
Session I (10am): European funding for culture
Session II (2:15pm): Wider international working, Europe and beyond

A fortnight after the premiere of iTMOi, Akram Khan's new choreographic ode to Stravinsky, the Sadler's Wells Associate Artist returns with DESH allowing the opportunity to see the man himself back on stage performing in his most personal and acclaimed work to date. DESH sees Khan take a solo journey through his joint British and Bangladeshi heritage in a visually stunning production that won the Olivier Award for Best New Dance Production in 2012, featuring design by visual artist Tim Yip (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and lighting by the award winning Michael Hulls. Best availability can be found on Wednesday evening. Before Wednesday's peformance there is a screening of The six seasons, a poetic film documenting Khan's creation of DESH.

Following on from the sell-out success of An Anatomie in Four Quarters this maverick company returns to Sadler's Wells with an utterly compelling and powerful mix of music, dance and physical theatre. "Clod Ensemble are a shape-shifting, genre-straddling, media-mixing, experimental, experiential, project-based performance group" The Guardian Featuring a live, original, sultry blues-inspired score, Zero draws on inspiration from King Lear and Hurricane Katrina as ten dancers and seven musicians come together to recreate the violent emotions and mighty storms of the deep south. With tickets priced at only £15, book yours today.

***** "ZooNation's irresistible comedy is a whirlwind of hip hop dance, bright storytelling and boundless energy" The Independent As the rave reviews keep on coming, what better way to treat your family and friends than to see the smash-hit West End musical Some Like It Hip Hop? Bursting with charm and energy this spectacular dance musical is one of the best shows in town. But don't just take our word for it, read some of the amazing audience reaction.			Cutting edge choreographer William Forsythe has been defining the direction of contemporary dance for the last three decades, pushing the boundaries of dance from an identification with classical repertoire to a dynamic 21st century art form. Presenting the UK premiere of Study #3 at Sadler's Wells, Forsythe has created an enthralling work to music by Thom Willems, which incorporates elements from 30 of his previous works spanning the last 30 years.

With tickets from just £8 for each of the four programmed events, Sadler's Sampled showcases unparalleled talent from the worlds of contemporary, ballet, breakdance and tango at unbeatable value. Including evenings from Hofesh Shechter and Rosas, and two mixed bills with extracts by Russell Maliphant, Wayne McGregor, Stuttgart Ballet, Vagabond Crew and many more, why not bring a friend and introduce them to the wonders of dance.			Paco Peña's Quimeras is a fusion of African and traditional Spanish music and dance in which the African beat meets flamenco flare in a captivating exchange of cultures. Directed by Southbank Centre Artistic Director Jude Kelly this "breathtakingly beautiful" (Daily Telegraph) cross-continental extravaganza explores the profound influence that Africa has had on European culture as it follows a group of African immigrants making a new life in Southern Spain.
