Plan your post-summer Intensive Weekends with COMPASS
The next two COMPASS Intensive Weekends have been confirmed, taking place in Härnösand on 2-4 September 2022 and Bollnäs on 21 to 23 October 2022.
Intensive Weekends offer young and emerging artists dance classes, workshops, live performances and an opportunity to jam among other activities.
We can only take in a maximum of 30 participants, aged between 15 and 25, on a first-come, first-served basis.
There is a small fee for each of the weekends but we do not want money to get in the way of participation, so we can remove the fee in certain circumstances. Please contact hannagodl@ildance.se for more information.
Below you can discover more information on the weekends in Härnösand and Bollnäs as well as some testimonies from artists who have participated in earlier events.
“I discovered that we are not alone in this world of dance, we can help each other and this is very important. This experience led me to reflect on how movement works and to seek more and more, always have a “hunger for dance”, always be in search of something, never be satisfied, but always remaining humble and coherent with oneself, listening to your body. Thanks for the opportunity!”
“There is something special with gathering intensively for a few days, as we do on COMPASS intensive weekend. The space is entirely ours to let information flow and to give, to absorb, to share, to explore, to ask, to dance as much as we desire. Being busy together in a somewhat compact time, using curiosity and openness with humans who correspond to each other, wishing to live their known or yet unknown endeavour, is exciting and beautiful. We learn about and from each other in a warm and necessary way. When being most of the time somewhere with and within yourself, COMPASS gives the body and all its senses an external opening through intensive weekends with physical and practical workshops, in an adaptive and accessible way. We feel heard.”
