Reshuffling Relations is the third addition of a festival creating space for somatic movement practices, improvisational techniques, dance and performance research in Malmö, Sweden.

During three weeks we offer 23 workshops, 9 performances, 7 jams and collective practices, as well as space for conversation and reflections through collective on-boarding, integration and completion sessions.

The festival is curated to have events that speaks to both the curious newcomer, the experienced practitioner, the professional dancer and choreographer, as well as to anyone independent of background and experience.

We have invited international, national and local practitioners to share their practices with us, such as BodyMind Centering, Shiatsu into Improvisation, Contact Improvisation, Alexander Technique for Movers, Skinner Releasing Technique, Polyvagal Theory in Practice, Craniosacral Therapy into Movement and much, much more.

Practitioners teaching or performing in the public program are Katarina Eriksson, Lisa Larsdotter, Otto Ramstad, Olive Bieringa, Evelina Boström, Elise Nuding, Måsen Erlandsson, Anna Weiser, Wolfgang Weiser, pavleheidler, Karolin Kent, Ina Dokmo, Sofie Malm, Elin Waileth, Kerstin Abrahamsson, Stine Markowinski, Siriol Joyner, Estrellx Reyes, Fredric Gies, Benjamin Medin, Myrto Noa, Philippe Blanchard, Daniel Kaplan, Tuva Hildebrand, Celine Orman, Emelie Bardon, Aurora Westfeldt, Katarzyna Paluch, Anna Wallin & Marie Klawitter.

Performances offered ranges between our core event Performing Underscore #3 at Dansstationen in Malmö on March 3rd at 19.30 with national experienced improvisers Lisa Larsdotter, Katarina Eriksson, Måsen Erlandsson, Kerstin Abrahamsson, and international Olive Bieringa, Sally E Dean and Otto Ramstad – to several experimental solo performances by national choreographer-performers working in the lineage of a somatic practice.

Themes this year are community-building, decolonial perspectives, transmission of knowledge and, as usual, lineage and ancestry of somatic dance improvisation.

Unique for this year is that we also facilitate a Teachers & Practitioners Gathering: Deep Practice Days, Mar 3-8th, with workshops by Eva Karczag, Olive Bieringa, Sally E Dean and Lisa Nelson.

If you want to participate in Deep Practice Days please email hildebrand.tuva@gmail.com.

Our workshops, performances, jams and collective practices will take place in different locations in Malmö: Dansstationen, Galleri FRANK, Alma Söderberg Studio and Skånes Dansteater.
