Body Landscapes
Impression after the third edition
From the 7th to the 15th of August 2025 a group of 35 young people from Italy, Switzerland and Germany met in the Swiss mountains for 9 days of dance and co-creation.
The first part of the journey was dedicated to building an appreciative connection to your own body and to learning ways to safely engage with other bodies in movement. From there the group went into improvisation, nature exploration and the development of their own performances. Additionally there were sessions focusing on verbal communication, emotional care and also on critical reflection of global conflicts. The group was exploring how movement and connection to the body can help to facilitate coping with challenges.
Making a safe bonding experience in an international group was another valuable experience for a lot of participants.
We spent nine beautiful days of deep care and creative abundance together. <3
