Rationale
The IntegrO – Dance Beyond project is specifically modelled to create new teachers in dance (Flying Low & Passing Through) having a holistic approach to it through Therapeutic Massage, Chi Gong & Yoga and Craniosacral. Through this blend we will find the unity of the four rhythms we experience in our lives: heartbeat, breath, meridian rhythm, and cerebrospinal fluid rhythm. All these four rhythms regulate our homeostasis in body, mind and spirit. IntegrO is an intensive dance project in which we will use diverse methods to experience and learn in depth how to regulate and guide the energies of the body and mind. Chi Gong and Yoga will focus on the meridians rhythm, Dance – Flying Low and Passing Through – on the heartbeat and breath, SEA Therapy on the energy channels of the body and Integrated Cranial Biodynamics will focus on the Cerebrospinal fluid rhythm. All this unique integration of disciplines will create a wholesome practice that will not stop only in what dance stands for: we will Dance Beyond.
Integro in Latin means to renew, to restore and make whole. Also it means to begin again, to start from scratch and lastly it means to recreate and refresh. Integro also means to integrate diverse disciplines into one wholesome practice. We will all create new beginnings in our artistic process and practice so as to find unity in body and mind.
After the 50 days and six full years of research on Flying Low and Passing Through, Vangelis Legakis invites David Zambrano to teach, to develop, to pass through our common norms and boundaries, to renew and refresh our practices. Vangelis is also inviting his other two great teachers Mike Tan founder of SEA and Rosemary Wallace, founder of Integrated Cranial Biodynamics to create a wholesome project in which we will dance and sweat, we will learn and express, we will embody and progress.
