Conny Janssen Dances - INSTINCT | Social map for newcomers

No Dutch? No problem! Scroll down for more information. How do we cope with the pace and expectations of modern society and the high demands we place on ourselves? Do we try to keep up, do we flee, or do we fight? INSTINCT isn't just a dance performance—it's an explosion of energy, movement, and emotion. In this dynamic performance by the Rotterdam dance company Conny Janssen Danst, we delve into the four instinctive responses to threat with an adventurous group of dancers: fight, flight, freeze, or contentment. What happens when you're under pressure? For the first time, a large-scale performance by Conny Janssen Danst is being co-created. Artistic director Conny Janssen has invited choreographer Patricia van Deutekom (LAVA Collective) to join us. While Patricia van Deutekom favors a powerful, unpolished, yet sensitive dance language, Conny Janssen focuses more on the individual qualities of her dancers, which she interweaves with her own dance language. The result? A captivating blend of movement, music, and storytelling that draws you into the struggle, tension, and adrenaline of everyday life.
