Few words on BMC®
Body-Mind Centering® (BMC®) is an approach that supports the growth of body awareness and the efficiency we engage to move in the world. BMC® study is based on anatomy, physiology and psychology fundamentals and on the basic infant development movement patterns. BMC® uses a variety of functional and theory principles in the exploration of the body systems (skeleton, organs, endocrine, fluids……), breathing and vocalization and senses and perception, through the use of hands touch and movement. In a BMC® group or individual session the focus is on the experience of the body from within, so that each exploration of the body in movement through sensations and perceptions results personal and unique. The process of meeting our movement habits opens up to new motor-sensor-emotional and cognitive possibilities, towards a wider integration of our resources on self-regulation, balance, creativity and well being. Our body-mind system turns up to be more sensitive, receptive, available and aware.
Body-Mind Centering® is registered service mark, and BMCSM is a service mark of Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen.

Theme of the workshop of Eleonora Parrello: Perceiving in action / inner space, outer space. Somatic movement Body-Mind Centering®
Starting with a deep listening of the inner space in our body, in constant dialogue with the outer space, we’re going to explore the richness of relations among our physical sensations and perceptions and their expression through movement. We will explore the principle of permeability and the fluid dynamic of the primary movement of expanding and condensing through breathing, yielding and pushing and expanding in the space, both in lying, rolling and standing. 
We will explore with curiosity different possibilities of alignment among our body’s volumes (head, torso, pelvis) in our horizontal dimension, down in the earth, and in our vertical axis moving through space. We will work using touch and contact respecting our body structures and functions, nurturing an intimate and playful dialogue between out body and mind, between ourself and non-self, between what is inside and what is outside us, trying to be permeable and sensitive.

Title of the workshop of Ippokratis Veneris: “Balancing”…..
In these lessons we will work on the concept of balancing both in the technical sense or, how to be a balance in the dance between two bodies, how to find a harmony, fluidity, lightness and simplicity in dance duet.
.
Balancing also in the sense of harmony by listening to ourselves and then pass at listening of “the other” respecting both us and the partner, arriving at an empathic, fluid, playful dance; becoming a real meeting and a means to travel, to let go, to know better ourselves. Meet us and the “different from us” in an effervescent union-dance!

Theme of the workshop of voice and instruments of Roberto Bellatalla: “Sound awareness” – A brief journey into the world of soundun
L’apparato uditivo The auditory system develops early when we are still in the womb. From then on we begin to listen and to receive information from the outside world. Since then, probably, we begin to record our first memories.The workshop’s aim is to explore the world of sound as such, beyond the music and entertainment. The sound is intended as a pure vibration, vital vibration, shared, universal language and matter of the universe.The ability to listen, familiarity with music and sound, contributes positively to the development and growth of sensitivity and empathy, and it is also what we might call ” a good switch to turn off the internal dialogue”. The session is divided on the practice of some simple exercises: – Breathing and Listening – Voice and Body-Instrument – Long Tones and Meditation – The Rhythm-Tree – Improvisation
Theme of the sound and movementn workshop of R.Bellatalla: “who moves whom?”
Deepening the relationship between dance and live music, free improvisation. In this laboratory the goal will be to explore the best possible system of improvisation, the more combinations existong, searching for listening, understanding and complicity between contact dancers and musicians.
