Upcoming Performance:
Global Water Dances at Steyerberg (Germany) on Sunday, June 15, 2025
Global Water Dances is a bold visionary artistic initiative focused on the critical need for safe drinking water. Inspire action, leadership, and international collaboration for environmental water solutions through the universal language of dance.
This performance workshop is open to all, amateurs to professionals, who feel like expressing themselves in movement. We will connect with water in nature - feel it, move it, dance it.
During this weekend in June of 2025, people from all over the world will meet to dance on the theme of "water". We will be a part of this global movement in the village of Steyerberg, Lower
Saxony and in the Permaculture Park at Lebensgarten Steyerberg (PALS).
With the tools from Rudolf Laban, Antja will facilitate the choreographic process with the existing skills from the group. Individual movement sequences and structured
improvisation phrases developed in subgroups will be combined into a choreography within a very short time. The dance will be for the most part created on-site and performed on this weekend, with
some preliminary rehearsals online on two Saturdays beforehand.
Rehearsals:
Via Zoom - for the global part of the dance: Saturday May 31, 2025 10-13h and Saturday June 7, 2025 10-13h.
On site - Steyerberg / PALS, Lower-Saxony, Germany: Friday, June 13 starting at 15h. – Sunday,
June 15, 2025 approx. 16h.
