Co-operative Practices: Body-Mind Centering®  and Creative Process taught by  K.J. Holmes and Bebe Miller at Bearnstow on Parker Pond,  Mount Vernon, Maine August 21-27, 2011 Bebe Miller, K.J. Holmes and Ruth Grauert Bebe Miller and K.J. Holmes will collaborate in leading this workshop, laying a groundwork of interdependent elements drawn from their approaches to creative practices. Designed as a creative retreat, this week provides time for guided practice, individual exploration and group dialogue.   Each day will contain a guided warm-up, exploration of Body-Mind Centering (BMC™) with K.J., choreographic strategies for embodied awareness in dance making with Bebe, individual and group practice and reflection, along with time to enjoy the Bearnstow environment. We invite you to translate between land and lake, artfulness and mindfulness, and note the information that arises from a canoe stroke, a sunset or a conversation, as well as our dance making.   This workshop is open to experienced choreographers and dancers, and anyone invest in the act of creating. Bring existing works to explore. Bebe and K.J. will act as facilitators, offering particular frameworks for further investigation. We will move between improvisational scores and set material, developing strategies for exploring and expanding our movement and ideas. Which part of my kinesthetic brain am I using? What framework am I working in now? How rigorous can my creative practice be?   We will be work with all that is present - our bodies, the cabins, the porches, the landscape, the silence, the light.    This is the time to create the space you need.
