This holistic approach meets the claim of &quot;organic gymnastics&quot; from Adolf Koch&#039;s life-reforming physical culture school. She wanted to do &quot;inspired bodywork&quot; and lead the practitioners to &quot;renewal of the body and soul&quot; - today we would say: empowering. No concrete methodical exercise instructions have survived from Adolf Koch, but he has described his exercise principles in various works. This includes the alignment of the exercises to the needs and abilities of the respective body, as it is individually made (form follows function), the free expression of inner movement through playful external movements of the body, breathing rhythms instead of technical beats, as well as joy and fun moving (\u201cWe romp a lot, we like to romp\u201d) \u2013 and of course being naked together as a social event (\u201cNude \u2013 be honest\u201d*).<\/p>\n<p>In the movement workshop &quot;Yoga meets Adolf Koch&quot; we want to experiment with yoga and the cooking recipes with relish and joy. From yoga we know mainly static positions (asana) and guided transitions in several steps (vinyasa). How can they be expanded with regard to the exercise principles of Adolf Koch&#039;s body school? For example through free, spontaneous and dynamic movements such as swinging and falling, shaking and vibrating, dancing and jumping? On 6 evenings we explore and research our movement and expression potential by starting with guided yoga and looking for transitions into free movement.<\/p>\n<p>Adolf Koch (1897-1970), the founder of our association, was not only a committed social democrat and social reformer, but also an outstanding practitioner and teacher of nudism in the context of the life reform movement in the 1920s. He ran his &quot;School for Physical Culture&quot; in Berlin-Neuk\u00f6lln until the 1950s. This resulted in 1951 in the &quot;Adolf Koch eV Family Sports Club&quot;. At its peak, Adolf Koch&#039;s institute operated 13 gymnastics schools throughout Germany and was instrumental in popularizing the nude sports movement.<\/p>\n<p>*Quotes from Adolf Koch (1929): Nudity, Physical Culture and Education.

We will work with imagination and physical coordination. \nWe don't need a yoga mat - just ourselves :) For practise you would usually wear light, thin-soled sports shoes, non-slip socks, or just go barefoot.<br \/>\nTaiji (as an internal martial art) combines aspects of martial arts, meditation and chinese health concepts.\nIt's all about connecting those three aspects by assuming simple postures and slowly flowing sequences of postures. \nWe will begin with a few basic exercises (Qigong and silk reeling) and then start learning our first Yang-style Taiji movements.<br \/>\nThese postures and movements can be practised either in a simple way, or -depending on your individual ability- will let you discover ever more \ncomplex levels in that same posture.<br \/>\nOur goals in practising Taiji are to develop an awareness of our body, to practise mindfulness, to counteract everyday stress through mental and physical \nrelaxation, to strengthen our body's self-healing powers and to improve our general posture and even everyday movements.<\/p>\n<p>Please bring along: Possibly something to drink and possibly shower utensils.<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Contact:<\/strong> <a href=\"mailto:taiji@adolf-koch.de\" target=\"_self\">taiji@adolf-koch.de<\/a> (<a href=\"\/en_gb\/mitglieder\/maik\/\" target=\"_self\">Maik<\/a>)<br><\/div><\/div> <div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/1024px-Yin_yang-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12729\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adolf-koch.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/1024px-Yin_yang-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.adolf-koch.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/1024px-Yin_yang-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.adolf-koch.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/1024px-Yin_yang-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.adolf-koch.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/1024px-Yin_yang.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<p><!-- end taiji --><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Body Awareness: A variety of offerings focused on your body awareness: improvisational dance, figure drawing, meditation and contact improvisation, Tai Chi\/Qigong (each offered as a course block) -&gt; to promote body awareness, mindfulness, and body positivity!
