Vortrag für den Schweizerischen Musikpädagogischen Verband (SMPV)
Die Kunst der Bewegung - befreites Spielen durch Body Mapping
Body Mapping ist eine somatische Methode speziell für Musikerinnen und Musiker, die auf neurowissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen beruht und die Kunst der Bewegung beleuchtet.
In dieser 45-minütigen Einführung in das Body Mapping lernen die Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmer über Bewegung, die Sinne und die Aufmerksamkeit beim Spielen und Singen. Dies wird dazu beitragen, die Bewegung von Musikerinnen und Musikern zu trainieren, indem die Wahrnehmung neu geschult und eine genaue und angemessene Körperkarte (Body Map) kultiviert wird. Die Einführung in ein umfassendes Bewusstsein kann helfen, Erfahrungen von Auftrittsangst zu transformieren.
