I Like To Move and Movie

A movie screening with an (dare we say it) IMMERSIVE twist. A new format for a day event, combining movement/physical/embodiment workshops with the film screening. Another Trainscendence event in which we learn together, journey as a group and share in something a little unique and special over the course of the day.

The day slowly increases in energy, then descends, following the classic story arc.

We’ll gather at 11am. The date will be Sat, 24 May. With much fanfare, the mystery movie shall be revealed.

Next, a meditative opening class, preparing us for the themes of the movie ahead.
Then, the first third of our mystery movie is screened. This film has some connection to movement of some kind. A relevant workshop follows, taking energetic and thematic cues from the point in the film which we’re paused at. We take a breather, and have some lunch, themed to match the movie that we’re watching.

After lunch the middle third of the film, pausing at a cliffhanger, the most climactic moment. A high energy workshop after that, of course. We’re really in it, the climax, the tension, the uncertainty. The plot has not yet resolved. But we believe. And we move in that belief.
Finally, the final third of the movie. We celebrate the newfound ending and share our experiences together.

In our minds and bodies, we’ve really gone through the experience of the film in some way.

An experiment. One which we imagine will be fun and interesting. Limited to only 25 people.

There’ll be three great practitioners leading the workshops, a truly fascinating mystery film, and a sense of camaraderie between us as we quest together.

No expertise in dance styles or movement classes required, teachers will tailor the classes to suit a variety of experience levels. Activities during the day will be opt-in, the focus is on the shared experience of watching a film in three parts and exploring movement and energy between the parts. This exploration can be taken completely at one’s own pace.
