The Laban/Bartenieff Movement System is many things, but above all an instrument to observe, read, describe, interpret, study, make aware and therefore free the body, movement and dance.
The two-day event is a first opportunity to get to know and discuss what the system is in terms of its practice and study. This appointment is intended as a first and basic introductory account of the research and evolution of Rudolf Laban and Irmgard Bartenieff’s work over the years in Europe and around the world.
Alessio Maria Romano and Katharina Conradi will illustrate a number of categories of the system by means of hands-on sessions and moments of dialogue and sharing of experiences.
The workshop is designed for dancers, actors, performers, and dance students. A CV is required for knowledge.

She also works on art projects including the films entitled “Horizon” and “Der Schnee und das Mädchen”, and the community art project called “The home project” and presents “Moving Our Selves” with fellow educator Joanna Brotman.
