JESSICA VAN RUSCHEN
Morning class: 19th and 27th of March

The class begins with a short session of awareness training. Through a guided string of focus, the dancer consciously acknowledges his/her present state of Being and uses his physical observations to generate movement. Through guided and focused concentration we deepen our understanding of our mental and physical abilities, creating physical and mental openness to play with new possibilities and discover creative development of movement. The following technical part of the class consists of the known elements of ballet technique, which will be combined with floor work. Instead of mainly remaining in vertical plane Jessica strongly uses the horizontal plane to strengthen arms, torso and the centre of the body, promote understanding of bodyweight, tension and release, direction and timing: the physical organization necessary to move easy and quick through the floor and from horizontal to vertical.

Jessica was born in 1976 in Leer, Germany. After graduation she worked for Staatstheater Oldenburg, Stadttheater Heidelberg, Itzik Galili/Galili Dance, Piet Rogie/RogieCompany, SALLY, Vera Sander, Stephen Shropshire, Jens van Daele, Conny Janssen Danst and multiple freelance choreographers. During the last six years she worked as a company member of LANDERERCOMPANY in Hannover, Germany. She choreographed her own work under the production of Dansateliers Rotterdam and created two pieces for LANDERERCOMPANY in 2017 and 2019/20. In 2004 she started to develop her own work in the field of video film and edit. Within this area she produces short films, documentary and works for various choreographers in creating theatre visuals, registrations and promotional trailers.
