Relating in Relation 60+

Open Class with Irina Hortin

This group is a process oriented dance project, which has been working together with Irina Hortin on the relationship of body, dance and voice in times of change and transition since 2019. Times of change and crisis make us realize the importance of inner body-work to relate to ourselves and others in new and creative ways. Through dance and improvisation, the group explores the impact of movement and impulse in relationship with the group and each other. In cooperation with Zentrum Plus and Diakonie Gerresheim as well as some of their networks this course will include 1-2 visiting offers to reach out to those people 60 + who are otherwise not able to attend the class on site. In this way we are keen to bring dance and play into relation with others and their everyday-life.

Irina Hortin first studied linguistics and literature in Germany, France and Argentina before going on to study contemporary dance in Cologne and Munich. She performs internationally, regularly choreographs for Schalktheater in Zurich, heads youth dance theatre projects and teaches contemporary dance, contact improvisation as well as tango at international festivals. The encounter with Frey Faust, an important figure within French contemporary dance and editor of movement dictionary Axis Syllabus, was of special importance for Irina’s vocational biography, and Irina, as a certified Axis Syllabus (AS) teacher, references the dictionary. The interdisciplinary AS research network surveys the functions of the human body in motion. In the process, information from biomechanics, anatomy, physics and medicine come into use to analyse our motion apparatus and to have it start to move in a functional and caring way. The focus always lies on a respectful contact with oneself and others – and, of course, on the fun in dancing!
