Danses du monde, danses en cercle

About the event

Danser ensemble les traditions du monde, pour débutant.e.s et initié.e.s

Avec Brigitte Mesdag et Jan Quintens

Nous, les êtres humains, dansons depuis le commencement. Nos premiers maîtres ? Les animaux et leurs merveilleuses chorégraphies de danses nuptiales au printemps. Les danseurs dans l’Antiquité exprimaient leur terreur, leur bravoure, leur émerveillement, leur besoin de rencontre. Selon les contrées, la géographie, l’environnement, le climat… des traditions sont nées, des peuples ont forgé leur identité. Les langues, chants et danses en témoignent. Dans différentes langues du monde, le mot « danse » signifie souvent « ronde, cercle » comme Hora, en Roumain, Kolo en Serbe et Croate. Chaque tradition a ses spécificités : costumes, rythmes, instruments et mélodies… pourtant un lien profond nous unit au-delà des frontières, des identités.

La danse traditionnelle était vécue et exécutée comme un rituel ou les besoins de rencontre, d’appartenance étaient nourris. Aujourd’hui encore, grâce au rituel, le besoin d’exprimer et de partager nos émotions nous relie : danser pour célébrer la joie d’une vie nouvelle, pour accompagner le deuil, pour donner du courage, pour signifier un changement. De tous temps, danser ensemble permet de transcender le quotidien, rend la vie, souvent dure, plus supportable.
Les participant.e.s danseront en deux groupes selon leur niveau d’expérience et technique. L’apprentissage des pas de base et la découverte des divers rythmes feront partie de l’enseignement. Nous commencerons et finirons ensemble avec des échauffements et danses partagés par toutes et tous.

Brigitte et Jan se sont inspirés de plusieurs traditions et cultures. Ils continuent à renouveler leur répertoire de danses françaises, israéliennes, roumaines, grecques, klezmer, arméniennes, turques argentines, serbes, croates etc. Leur objectif est de créer un espace de rencontre à travers le rituel de la danse.

The internship will be a holistic participatory learning experience & process. Interns will experience being part of the Gaia Ashram Community and we will live together for one month at– Gaia Ashram-. At Gaia Ashram we belief in holistic learning that balances the head, hands & heart. Gaia Ashram encourages participatory learning & values the power of community in holding the learning space. We design the daily & weekly structure of the internship and of our lives here based on these values and principles. Theoretical learning (Head) The theoretical sessions will be participatory and interactive. It will cover the 4 keys of Ecovillage Design Education (Social, Economical, Ecological and Worldview inspired by Gaia Education). Each week will cover one of the Ecovillage Design Keys and integrated into this we will be introduced to Permaculture Design & Deep Ecology in terms of philosophy, movement and personal experiences. Overall, We will have a maximum of 2-3 hours of theory per day on the session days, to also create lots of space for practical experiential learning. See more details of the key content below. Practical learning (Hands – on) For the hands – on practical learning we will be developing the Gaia Ashram’s farm and restoring nature on the Gaia Ashram land using permaculture strategies & techniques that are appropriate for the Rainy Season & the land and its local context.
