Thursday October 30th to Sunday November 2nd 2008	The Creation Choreographed by Nanni Kloke and presented by Judy King and Lorraine Pratt The Creation is a work choreographed by Nanni Kloke. The text of Genesis – chapter 1 gave Nanni the inspiration for her beautiful choreographies. The music is almost all classical and offers a range of mood, tempo and emotion. The fifteen dances in this work are related to different verses of the Scripture. It is always a very moving experience to work together on a theme over a long weekend. Individually these dances are very special but when they are brought together and danced without interruption, something very special indeed happens. Judy and Lorraine will be working together to deepen your experience of this wonderful piece of work. Judy will be teaching the dances while Lorraine will explore what the writers were trying to communicate and discover in other ways our response to the wonders of our world. The Royal Agricultural College (RAC) is set in twenty five acres of magnificent grounds around a Victorian Gothic building and is situated near Cirencester in the heart of the Cotswolds in Gloucestershire. We will dance on a wooden floor in a spacious room. Accommodation is available in single or twin bedded rooms and all rooms are en-suite with tea making facilities and TV. They are all situated in the main building. The food is excellent. Cost: £250 per person for fully residential or £200 for non residential.

Friday November 6th to Sunday November 8th 2009	Beyond the Steps This is a two part course: the second weekend is 26th-28th February 2010. What is there in the dance once you have mastered the steps? Oh - just sooo much more! For me as a dancer, when I first discovered the dances choreographed by Friedel Kloke-Eibl there was a real “wow’ factor. As I danced in Germany with her more and more the way I moved started to change and the inner change that so often occurs with the dance started to take shape. It has taken a long time to be able to put it all into words but now I think I can. Quite simply, when I dance, spirit meets body and when I dance certain dances - THERE is my form of spiritual practice. On this course, I will be teaching some of the dances that take me to that special place and together we will explore the concept of spirituality in the dance. As well as teaching a programme of dances, I will also be working with ‘exercises’ that will help you to increase your body awareness. How do you move? How do you respond to the music? How can increased body awareness help you connect more deeply with the steps and with the feelings the steps allow you to express? What happens to the energy in the room when we repeat dances several times? What happens to the energy in the group when we work closely together on a theme and then come back together three months later? As well as all the dancing, there will also be time for discussions and on the Saturday evening of each weekend, the ‘floor will be open’ for you to share your current favourite dance with the rest of the group. The cost of each weekend is £215 and you must commit to the whole course. Contact Judy for further details.
