EMPOWERING DANCE – SOFT SKILLS IN DANCE
As part of the Erasmus+ funded project Empowering Dance - The Soft Skills Teaching and Learning Approach, seven European dance houses and universities have jointly developed a digital guidebook that invites dance practitioners and artists from other fields to explore the potential of teaching soft skills as part of their artistic, participatory or pedagogical practice.
In the workshop, Hamburg based choreographer Patricia Carolin Mai and K3 director Kerstin Evert will introduce the guidebook and its topics and tools: Which soft skills are central to one's own work? How can these be addressed more specifically in one's own practice? What possibilities does knowledge about the soft skills used open up for transferring one's own dance practice to other sectors?
For professional dance practitioners (dancers, (dance) pedagogues, choreographers, dance students, etc.) and all those interested in related artistic and pedagogical fields.

Patricia Carolin Mai
Patricia Carolin Mai produces stage pieces as a dancer and choreographer with production locations at Kampnagel and at K3 - Hamburg, at LOFFT - DAS THEATER Leipzig and at Ringlokschuppen Mülheim an der Ruhr. The focus of her choreographic work is the investigation of the body as a central repository of memories. 2016 - 2019 she developed her trilogy on "bodies in extreme states" with the pieces Ready to Snap (2016), Balagan Body (2018) & HAMONIM (2019). In summer 2019, she accepted Ninety9 Art Company's invitation to Seoul in Korea to work in GAL-GAL on women's self-empowerment in Korean society. For this work she was awarded the "International Choregraphy Award Goyang 2020". In 2020, she explored the limits of her physical performance in the 12-month solo self-experiment KONTROL, questioning cultural normalisations of body and gender. She choreographed ASTERISM (2021) and ANIMA (2022) by multimedia composer Alexander Schubert, as well as the group piece OR (2022) for the Company of the Leipzig Dance Theatre. For the years 2020 - 2023 Patricia Carolin Mai has received conceptual funding from the City of Hamburg and continues with WAHN, UND SO KAMEN WIR ZUSAMMEN and RAUSCH. Eine Revision (AT), she continues her work on the theme of "Practices of Community". In 2023, together with 100 participants and in co-production with Kampnagel and K3, she will venture a look at the history of Tanzwut and complete the trilogy.
