Workshop with Toronto instructor Yves Candeau  Saturday  February 11, time to be announced, All Saints Church, Peterborough

Bio:Yves Candau has been teaching Contact Improvisation since 2001. In Canada he has given classes and workshops in Toronto , Vancouver and Guelph ; and abroad he has also taught in France , Italy , Germany and the USA .He has a background in science and was doing a PhD in Cognitive Sciences when he discovered dance. As a movement artist Yves is fascinated by how internal dynamics of mind and body give rise to manifested external movement; and aims to share his fascination with others through performance and teaching. As an interpreter Yves has worked with a number of choreographers in Toronto: Rebecca Todd, Eryn Dace Trudell, Malgorzata Nowacka, Newton Moraes, Holly Small, Kathleen Rea, and most frequently Peter Chin, for whom he has had the pleasure to dance over a span of 10 years and six different pieces.  Yves is also an overtone singer and a teacher of the Alexander Technique.
