Contact Improvisation, Hiking & Nature Immersion



About this event

3-day residential laboratory that integrates contact improvisation, movement research,
hiking, active meditation and coexistence in nature. A sensitive and
conscious encounter based on care, creative intimacy and ritual
manifestation.


The retreat will take place in the ravine and beach of Guy Guy,
stunning natural jewels in the west of the island of Gran Canaria,
accessible only by foot or by boat.



This lab is a gentle invitation for movers, artists, thinkers and anyone
who is drawn to a shared field of mindfulness, dance exploration and
rest in a natural paradise.

As we advance in our journey, we will share exercises that will
nurture the environment and help us to raise our vital energy, thus
deepening the existential space we occupy in nature.
There will be specific times during the day for personal creative
work, rest and sharing of participants' realities and necessities.



This journey is open to people who want to experience dance, the art
of walking and interaction in nature as healing and creative
processes. We will sleep outdoors, temperatures range from 30 degrees during the day to 20 in the evening. 


Flights: we advise you to arrive and leave one or two days before and
in order to explore this wonderful island on your own.
