Šuka Horn - Moving with Integrity in the Dance of Life
Ahead of this October's Moving with Integrity Weekend Workshop in Leipzig, Šuka and I sat down to share a little about our perspectives and approach to work. Šuka is a movement educator, who has integrated his passions for movement and music in the exploration and discipline of dance.
A former professional dancer, Šuka now devotes himself to sharing and teaching his ongoing research into movement as a means to more richly experience what it means to be alive.
Šuka's dance career began when he started practicing breakdance at the age of twelve in his hometown in Germany. Having had a strong fascination for music and sports from an early age, dancing offered him a way to combine these two passions and he started to dedicate his time and energy in developing a dance practice with a group of friends.
Soon Šuka’s curiosity led him to explore a variety of movement styles and he went to study at Codarts Rotterdam to turn dancing into his profession. Since then, Šuka has danced professionally in international productions including with 18 Monkeys Dance Theatre in Bangkok, choreographed by Jitti Chompee and more recently with Dimitri Papaioannous.
Having experienced what all his contemporaries at dance school were aiming for and performed at the top level touring internationally, Šuka realised more and more that it was actually teaching, working both with others steeped in the craft and with the general public that he found greater joy and satisfaction.
These days, Šuka gives regular teachings where he lives in Germany as well as being a regular guest teacher at several dance festivals and extended workshops around the world.
October 17-19, James and Šuka will offer a weekend together in Leipzig, Moving with Integrity: A Yogic Perspective for the Dance of Life:
