Contact Improvisation Weekend Workshop
With Steve Batts
14th - 16th November 2008
£50 / £25 concession
Echo Echo is offering another amazing opportunity to learn Contact Improvisation from an experienced and respected teacher in an intensive weekend workshop from 14th - 16th November.
Co-Artistic Director of Echo Echo, Steve Batts, has been teaching and performing locally for many years but also holds huge popularity and authority in dance outside of the UK and Ireland.
Steve is internationally renowned for his Contact Improvisation skills across Europe, the Middle East and Russia.
This will be Echo Echo's third Contact Improvisation weekend workshop of the year. The previous two were fully booked and received excellent feedback from all participants who were involved.
Steve's weekend workshops have seen people travel from Belfast, Galway and beyond to attend. The format of a weekend workshop is intensive but a great way to learn more about this movement form.
The workshop will start on Friday 14th November at 8pm for an evening session before continuing on Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th, 11am - 6pm, in the Echo Echo dance studio in the Waterside Theatre, Derry. There are limited places available.
Contact Echo Echo on 02871342266 (NI) or 04871342266 (ROI), or by email to book your place.
If you aren't sure what Contact Improvisation is or would like to know more before booking, visit this page for links and videos, or call us on the above number.

One-off Tango Workshop with guest teacher, Leilani Weis
An Introduction to Authentic Tango
With Guest Teacher Leilani Weis
Saturday 4th October
2pm-4pm
Cost £8/ £5 concession
Echo Echo Dance Studio, Waterside Theatre
Leilani Weis was born in Chile but now lives in Italy. She teaches, experiments and performs Contact Improvisation and Tango internationally. Leilani brings a special fire and sensuality to her dancing and applies the open and free improvisatory attitude of Contact Improvisation to her Tango dancing and Tango teaching.
This workshop will be an introduction to authentic Tango. The emphasis will be on understanding the "feel" of the dance rather than trying to learn lots of complicated steps.
The workshop is open to anyone but will be especially interesting for people with some movement experience in Salsa, modern dance, Contact Improvisation, ballroom dance.
To book a place, contact Echo Echo on 7134 2266 or email info@echoechodance.com
