Run through

It has been a long time since my last post..
Yes, I am still alive :) Even better this academic year I have been living in the Mediterranean dream.
Let me start from the beginning.
First of all, I was accepted at the University of Nicosia (Cyprus, if someone isn't sure where about is it)  in Dance program for full academic year as an ERASMUS student. No doubt, summer of 2012 was short and autumn came as in one day.
On October 2012 I started my studies in University of Nicosia Dance program as 3th year student. This program is made in 8 semesters which makes it as 4 years study program.
However, today is Thursday 18/04/2013 and is just one week left till the end of my second semester here. Next couple of days I have reserved to restore and to show what have I seen, experienced and discovered during this exiting and very busy year.
Following posts will be in the chronological order so you can follow my journey from the beginning.
Just one is left, get your self comfortable and stay updated :)

Imagery in SRT

In Skinner Releasing Techniques' literature is defined what is imagery and its usage in movement training.

However, these days I was looking for my own understanding of imagery in SRT. At the moment I am in the fight of diversity somewhere between:

• imagery as starting point where imagery is a "springboard";
• imagery as tool of work;
• imagery as a way of work.

And there is a question for you - what is your understanding of imagery and its application in SRT?

By the way, here is link to article about this topic: http://skinnerreleasing.com/articles/imageryarticle.html

Ready Steady& GO!

It's been a few weeks since I am back in University. Till now its been busy and very colorful beginning in all possible forms and meanings. This year has specific aroma of sweat from challenges and excitements.
Let me start from the beginning:

•  first of all, I joined yoga workshop on the summer, which lead to the teacher training. It means that my goal is to be come a yoga teacher. Maybe not this year, but definitely as soon as possible;
• secondly, as part of our Performance Project module I became a part of INFLUX dance company. One of the good news is that my wish became a truth ( once again ) and I am honored to work with Matthias Sperling. This module contains a lot of small and big challenges for me as person and human being as well as for me as dance student and future dancer and artist ( Please, fingers crossed for me! );
• and finally my personal goals and settings for year two after last year unsatisfactory marks, cause always I can do better  :) .

And just few words before I and You GO, continuous connection and dialogue with inner self is big piece of victory, my friend! ;)
My very best wishes to You and to Me as well,
