3rd MOVEMENT FESTIVAL • Therapeutic role of movement and dance

“I'm not interested in how people move, but what moves them.”
/Pina Bausch/

For the third time, the Śródmieście Cultural Center invites you to the Festival of POMOĆENI — a unique event that shows that movement and dance can have a truly therapeutic power. We meet on the last weekend of September in the heart of Warsaw — in three branches of the Śródmieście Culture Centre: on the Scena na Smolna, in the House in Aleje and in the Artistic Workshops.

What are Movements?
International dance/movement meetings in the heart of Warsaw. It's a space to listen... to your body in movement and dance. Because the body is not just physicality — it is a record of our emotions, history, tensions and needs. Sometimes it is enough to move a little differently than usual to feel better, lighter, closer to each other.

At the FESTIVAL OF MOVEMENT you will find workshops on various dance and movement techniques that act on consciousness and sensations flowing from the body and mind. Movements are a time to enjoy the dance and movement process, to be open to new experiences, to understand what serves the body and what is compatible with it. The workshops take place in a safe, friendly atmosphere, in intimate groups and are led by an experienced, international teaching team.
The participants of the festival are waiting for workshops conducted by experienced teachers from different corners of the world. We will learn techniques of working with the body that support in dealing with stress, fatigue or tension. It is not necessary to have any experience - regardless of age, fitness or form - there is something for everyone here.

MOVEMENT is not just movement — it is an encounter, trust in one's own feelings and the joy of being here and now. Intimate groups, a safe atmosphere and openness to the new — this is what this festival looks like.
This year it will be possible to sail away in COBONA — PROSPERITY THROUGH DANCE AND MOVEMENT, TOUCH OF THE COSMOS — MEDITATION AND IMPROVISATION IN DANCE AND SOMATIC MOVEMENT, partner with the floor during the CONTEMPORARY and POLISH CONTEMPORARY DANCE TECHNIQUES workshop. Feel the power of your body on PILATES and FELDENKRAIS METHODS, go for HIP-HOP/STREET STYLE, strengthen femininity on SLAVIC GYMNASTICS, meet the technique of the legendary TANZTHEATER WUPPERTAL PINA BAUSCH.

Two days full of joy of movement and dance meetings,
Fee for one workshop: 50 PLN
In addition:
- move the stone action, that is, creative painting and taking the stone into the world,
- a meeting with the dancers of TANZTHEATER WUPPERTAL PINA BAUSCH (Taylor Drury/Canada, Michael Strecker/Germany), followed by the screening of the documentary film “PINA” directed by Wim Wenders, which is a tribute to the outstanding German choreographer Pina Bausch.
Come on, get moving!
