OTHER IMPORTANT PRACTICS

PREPARATION & PATHWORK

Preparation is designed to help a participant get the very most out of any dance. It is an important element to Spiderflower's work as it readies students on many levels. Pathwork asks you to 'quest' upon certain elements of a course and is given beforehand. This gives plenty of breathing space to reflect upon key elements presented, feel out and process the pathwork internally. Students who embrace the pathwork will find they can access deeper levels of the work much more quickly. 

​

 

ARTISTIC PERSPECTIVE

Participants are expected to follow the ettiquette naturally found within a theatre environment.  Although the work is transformational - it is not a therapy form.

​

 

WORKING ON THE LAND

When the work takes us out onto the land, allowing the body to be with, listen to and learn from specific places are important to each particular block of work. Participants are expected to respect the natural boundaries of a place we are working from (e.g. observing National Trust regulations and boundaries, remaining mindful not to stray onto farmers or private land, being respectful and of any venues ground rules for both inside and outdoor work).  

 

Participants will need to bring along suitable outdoor gear and will be advised on booking.

​

Please go to GUIDANCE for more detail on working practice and what to expect.
