Jesper Juul, Parent as Leader of the Flock. Loving leadership in the family
.
The show is a movement-based answer to the question of what connects humans and animals. How do we build closeness, create a home, search? Through movement, actions with objects, light, sound, we want to involve very young children and adults close to them in an interaction based on what connects (and at the same time nowadays so distant) people with the world of animals - INSTINCT.
How do we build a home and search?
How to meet with a very young child on such an adult topic? - Only and only in trust and faith that learning about the world through movement, experiencing it, developing it in action are natural - for children, their loved ones and dance professionals. With full acceptance and in openness to each person present - we will create a story without words about encounters, actions and relationships that lie in our nature, which each being creates from birth. The performance invites us into a safe, cozy space where families will be free to explore the sensory world built from the dancers' bodies and costumes. The multitude of colors and textures, gentle music and balanced, inclusive actions have been created based on the many years of experience of the show's creators in realizing performances for very young children.
"Instincts" - a performance from the trend of new choreography - draws inspiration from the intertwining of wildness of nature and man. Its central premise is the desire to share with the audience the beauty and uniqueness of natural phenomena, and to encourage them to look at the surrounding reality as a space of magic and beautiful relationships.
The performance is a new work.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION:
."InstynkTy" is an intimate space where dancers accompany children and adults. In our performance, adults interact with children.
We enter the performance space without shoes. Free movement is possible. We ask adults to accompany the children at all times, let's also all try to take care of our own safety and comfort.
It is very important for us not to inhibit the natural reactions of our youngest spectators ( laughter, words, babbling and even crying are expressions of emotions for us and we are very keen that children can express them freely).
If the child feels uncomfortable you can leave with him and return at any time.
We ask that no food or drink be consumed during the performance, and that cell phones be turned off and no photos be taken.
