This interactive movement workshop is an opportunity to explore the method of “contact improvisation” with celebrated Israeli dancer and choreographer Edo Ceder. Improvisation in movement provides the opportunity to move and enjoy our own body, find stories inside, collaborate with others, and create art. In this workshop we will explore and experiment the power of movement within ourselves and community.

 

 

A Bit More About Edo:

Edo has been practicing and studying Contact and Improvisation, as well as contemporary dance since 1999, and teaching since 2006. He taught CI in Tel Aviv, New York (steps on broadway), the West Coast contact improvisation festival, Jacksonville MFA dance program (a guest class) and Warsaw Zawirowania contemporary dance festival. For the past 5 years he has been holding weekly CI classes, as well as Improvisation classes, and hosting a monthly Jam at Naim Studio in Tel Aviv.

Since 2008 Edo has been dancing professionally and also choreographing contemporary dance pieces, performing them in Germany, China, Israel, U.S.A and Poland. His duet “Aproximity” has received 3rd prize and audience favorite award in Zawirowania dance competition, Warsaw.

He completed 3 years of study of the somatic “Grinberg Method” and had worked with people in personal processes. He carries a 2nd degree black belt in Jujitsu and had taught children and adults. He holds a B.A. in Psychology and also works as a computer programmer.

“I look at CI as a practice and play with weight and the physical forces, while at the same time honing skills of non-verbal communication, presence, attention, opening of the heart, collaboration and sharing, and connection to self, ground, other.”
