Dying Octopus: A Continuum-based Ritual

Is it a ritual on death and dying? Is it a bunch of kids playing shape-shifting and enjoying themselves as water creatures? Is it a tool for whole-body sensuality? Is it an embodied metaphor for grieving everything that is withering or falling apart, both in ourselves and in the world at large? Is it a Continuum class?

…It might be a bit of all of these things. Through sound, breath, and movement, we will learn a score to playfully and sensually embody our inner octopus, and then go into a collective ritual where we move through its life cycle and dying process. And we‘ll experience everything there is to experience on the way.

Friday, November 1st, 2024, 6:00 p.m. - 9 p.m.

The event takes place at the studio of Skinship - a touch-based place for kinship, in Berlin Friedrichshain. Please know that this is a QUEER-CENTERING SPACE - created primarily as a saf(er) space for LGBTQA folks. As long as you know and respect that, everybody is welcome, regardless of gender identification or sexual orientation, if you see yourself as an ally. If you have any questions about this, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

(Note that while this is the in-person version of the event, there will also be an online version of the same class two days later.)
