Current events 2024

I regularly hold events online or on site in Stockholm or together with with my fantastic collaboration partners in various places. The following events are planned in 2024 (updated continuously):

Somatic Sunday: Hips don´t lie

Date: Sunday, December 8 at 14-16 CET. An in-depth workshop with Somatic Movement online on Zoom. We examine the anatomy and unconscious muscle tension in and around our hips and legs. This workshop is much needed for everyone but perhaps especially for those of you who have pain or tension around your hips, legs or knees. Maybe you have osteoarthritis or suspect it? Maybe there are certain movements that you avoid because they cause you pain?
För workshopen behöver du inget annat än en matta, bekväma kläder, en lugn plats att vara på och tillgång till uppkoppling. Kostnad: 450 kr. Zoomlänk kommer i samband med anmälan. Workshopen kommer att hållas på engelska.
Warm welcome! Register here

Workshops on request

Do you have a passion for tango and want to be able to continue dancing? Are you planning for workshops and are interested in themes about tango and keeping healty as a tango dancer?

I hold workshops on demand. Here are some examples, but you are also very welcome to contact me for suggestions.

Anatomy of the Tango

Are you looking for a deeper understanding of how you can use your body in a way that is more optimal both for your tango and for your health? I go through the anatomical structures and show models of skeletons to give an understanding of how it all fits together. We search for and experience how the structures feel in our own body. In this way, you first get a theoretical understanding which is then deepened by the experienced anatomy of your own body. We conclude by seeing how the anatomy affects us in our tango and how we can create the best conditions for a comfortable and sustainable dance.

The body's fascia (connective tissue) - what is it and what does it have to do with tango? 

This is how it works.

Our fascia is what actually holds our entire body together. It is found in and around our muscles, our joints, our organs and our bones. When the fascia becomes stiff, it's like wearing a sweater that's too tight, we can't fit. It makes our dancing uncomfortable and it often leads to pain that can prevent you from dancing or make you limited in your repertoire. I go through methods that are both effective and gentle to take care of your fascia and you get the opportunity to try it yourself and ask questions.

Resistance Stretching

An effective way to maintain and increase your mobility.

Many of us have been told that we should stretch...but not so much about HOW to do it in the best way. Stretching often involves bringing a muscle to its most stretched position and holding it there for a certain period of time. Does that sound familiar? What happens then is that we increase the mobility around our joints. Contrary to what many people think, it is not where we want increased mobility, our joints do well with stability. What is required, however, for our muscles to quickly shorten in a boleo and then relax and lengthen is that we take care of our connective tissue inside the muscles. Come and try it and you will discover the difference yourself.
