• Do you like dancing?
• Do you like watching other people dance?
• Are you interested in contemporary dance and movement? - Do think you might be?
• Are you an unskilled body that likes to use movement in simple and quirky ways?
• Would you enjoy coming up with ‘moves’ (in a disco style) or movements (in a contemporary performance style) and placing them into choreographies with other participants?
• Would you like to put yourself in relation to objects and other bodies to create sculptural formations and rhythms in time and space?
• Can you put your arms and hands into the same position as the Professor (see image)?

Then “Do the Dance Ensemble” could be for you!

Join Manchester-based contemporary performance-maker Swen Steinhauser for weekly practical sessions devoted to generating movements and developing diverse dance choreographies with ‘dancers’ without skill or expertise but passion and style.

Part laboratory for research into movement based choreography, part physical activity, part playful social event - these weekly sessions will begin by generating simple movements and slowly combine them into ever more complex choreographies diverse in dynamic and style.
