Pekka Saarikorpi:
A Finnish body musician and percussionist, performing artist, and educator, Pekka has worked with numerous music, dance, and theatre companies and organizations all over Finland. Over the years, he has been one of the most sought-after educators and teacher trainers in Finland in the field of rhythmic and holistic music education.
What is Pekka Saarikorpi Rhythm & Movement?
Pekka Saarikorpi’s Rytmi & Liike – Rhythm & Movement is essentially a practical concept that emphasizes music and art as experience. As practical arts, music, dance, and teaching need to be done. Therefore, Saarikorpi emphasizes the process of group learning, the power of shared experience, and each participant’s individual bodily action and bodily knowing—holistic and kinesthetic learning processes.
In Saarikorpi’s workshops, students explore the relationship between rhythm and movement, and music-making as a whole, through their bodies.
Maria Rutanen:
A Berlin‑based dance artist, teacher, and choreographer, her choreographic and movement practice is intertwined with various techniques such as somatic body‑based practices, release technique, instant composition, and contact improvisation. She holds an MA in Choreography from the Inter‑University Centre for Dance (HZT Berlin).
In her teaching, she is interested in the body’s kinesthetic ability to reach and fall, the effect of touch on movement, and equal encounters between different bodies and abilities through movement. She has shared her teaching internationally, for example in India, West Africa, and Iran.
In this movement exploration class, we work on the movement qualities of the body, extending toward spatial thinking in movement. We begin by attuning our bodies from within, reaching into space, and yielding to the weight of gravity. The class includes physical orientations to self, others, and space, using movement improvisation, different scores, and experiential anatomy as tools. The essence of the class is to soften into movement and to move with ease and lightness.
