Contemporary with Simon Wehrli

In a constant up and down in spirals and curves we concentrate on our relationship to the ground and the earth. Using short sequences, we work on elements such as spatial perception, expansion and cohesion. The aim is to keep calm even in moments of high intensity and to stay connected to the centre of the body. This training is partly based on the Flying-Low technique developed by David Zambrano.

Simon Wehrli (1983, Winterthur) started as a musician, attended the Accademia Teatro Dimitri in Verscio (CH) and then studied contemporary dance with Trinity Laban London (UK). In 2010, Simon was selected to participate in the international project 50 days of flying low and passing through Costa Rica 2010 under the direction of David Zambrano. Simon toured Europe, the USA, and Africa as part of the physical theater group Collettivo Spettatori and the dance improvisation group 50collective. As a dancer, actor, and musician he worked for choreographers in many major cities. Own creations include amongst others Greatest Hits (2013), How to become Clairvoyant (2016), Nature Poetry (2018), Nothing Works (Shakira, Shakira) (2019/20). Simon teaches dance in Switzerland and abroad, regularly works for the Dance Bachelor of La Manufacture Lausanne and is busy with his own productions as well as collaborations.
