Space for Practice 2026 season starts on 13 April

Space for Practice is a weekly movement practice session that happens every Monday morning between 9 and 11am in the Floating, originally initiated by Sabine Zahn.

This year, the Choreographic Milieu, Alice Chauchat, Clément Layes, Daniel Belasco Rogers, Gabriele Reuter, Ghyslaine Gau, Lea Martini, Paula Kramer and Sabine Zahn are all responsible for hosting.

Space for Practice makes time and space for movement practice with/in the rainwater retention basin of Floating. It is a regular activity with/in irregular conditions such as weather, other activities and the presence of people, beings and materials. It is an occasion for practices to encounter a place, for choreographers to encounter practitioners, for practitioners to encounter the site of Floating and for the site to shape the practices. This year’s edition is convened and facilitated in changing constellations by the Choreographic Milieu: Alice Chauchat, Clément Layes, Daniel Belasco Rogers, Gabriele Reuter, Ghyslaine Gau, Lea Martini, Paula Kramer and Sabine Zahn. We all offer proposals that stem from our respective practices/curiosities and from the site, whilst following each other’s traces.

We start on time at 9 am and all who are present hold the space collectively. There is no need to register and participation is free of charge. All are welcome, regardless of whether you have experience with movement practices or not and are committed to working things out together.

EVERY MONDAY from 9 – 11 am. at Floating University, Lilienthalstrasse 32, 10965 BERLIN

from April 13 – October 12, 2026. We take a break on May 25 and during the summer from July 13 until August 17.

Dan in two dance performances in Schöneberg with Alice Chauchat

Dan is taking part in two dance performances initiated by Alice Chauchat.

A Stroll, A Song, A Doubt, An Echo is a one-on-one performance walk in the urban space, with words and silence. Made by Alice Chauchat, Ghyslaine Gau and Dan, who live in Nollendorfkiez, the piece proposes a walk together, discovering how you can meet places with the support of words, song, and dancing. Strolling through the Nollendorfkiez at nightfall, you experience the city as a space of sensorial and imaginary encounters, where intimacy and distance are constantly rearranging. Every evening at 20:45 near Nollendorfplatz in Berlin between 17 April and 3 May. Register through this Eventbrite link.
