Move your Limits

Moving workshop about seeing and not seeing for school classes (6-14 years)

Target group: School classes between 6 and 14 years.

Duration: 2.5 hours 

In this workshop we deal with the topic of blindness and visual impairment. How is it possible to dance blind? How is it possible to orient oneself in space without seeing? What role does hearing play in this? And what is an accessible dance studio anyway?

 

This workshop is led by an experienced, mixed-abled trainer* team. After a group arrival and warm-up, the class will be divided into two groups.

Educator feedback

"What I found very exciting is that you were always lured out of your comfort zone without any unpleasant feeling. So students who announced in advance that they would not dance at all nevertheless tried their dance steps in the circle. I found that wonderful to watch! Thank you so much for letting me experience this with my class!"“ 

 

—  Simone Martin, Fellow Teach for Austria 2015

Feedback von Schüler*innen

„Der Workshop war für mich aufregend. Ich fand gut, dass wir verschiedenes ausprobieren durften. Besonders gefallen hat mir, dass wir verschiedene Brillen ausprobieren durften wie manche Leute mit Sehschwächen sehen können. Ganz neu war für mich, dass blinde Leute auch tanzen können und ich habe nicht gewusst, dass es viele Sehbeeinträchtigungen gibt. Ich habe gelernt wie man blinden Leuten die Hilfe anbietet.
 Ich war begeistert von dem Workshop.“

With our approach, we want to promote the health of children and adolescents in a variety of ways. Dancing conveys the joy of movement, the togetherness playfully strengthens social skills and non-verbal communication. Fear of contact is reduced. A space for active encounter and exchange is created. We understand dance and movement as a possibility to practice inclusion.

 

This project is partly financed by the Kahane Foundation.
