Motion. abundance. life.

Bio | Credo

My name is Sándor Petrovics. I was born in 1987 in Budapest, Hungary. In 2012 I acquired my diploma as a contemporary dancer at BCDA. Moving to Israel proved to be a pivotal point in my life. In Tel Aviv, I worked at Vertigo Dance Company, and parallel to that I was certified as an Ilan Lev Method practitioner. In 2019 I left Israel for the German Tanzmainz Company where Sharon Eyal’s work made the biggest impact on me. In this period, I also drew closer to the gaga language. In 2021, upon returning to Hungary I started to share my experiences in the form of teaching and ILM treatments. Recently, I am also a freelance dancer.

I believe that reality is layered and is made of patterns that pervade the visible and the invisible world. Out of these patterns the most fundamental is movement. This is the source, the way and the purpose of existence. Life itself. Body is our common heritage, which presents us with experiencing, connecting and growing. I believe that the female and male bodies are sacred and that God’s kingdom is amongst us. Therefore my classes and treatments are about human playfulness, development and dignity – in the perspective of eternity. Body is an opportunity to heal ourselves as well as our communities. Dance is the source of joy and health. Strength to replenish.

ILM

The Ilan Lev Method is a holistic therapy based on touch in which we use movement and sound as our tools to communicate with the vibrational energy inside us. Works on improving human capability, relieving aches, pains, and stress, functional difficulties, freeing the body’s blood and energy circulation. The Ilan Lev Method works with a strong connection between body and mind. Our unresolved emotional history is strongly correlated with blockages in the physical body. Therefore, the method doesn’t only treat motor dysfunction and issues concerning physical disabilities but also on a psychological dimension. In order to surface and resolve these entrenched or silenced blockages, we choose to create a safe environment, going back to our state of origin.

The session therapeutically is oriented to the skeleton. In the session the client’s body is gently moved, creating a rich and thoughtful dialogue between the practitioner and the patient. Movement re-energizes the body where communication was cut-off or stopped due to injury, pain, trauma or emotional issues. Instead of fighting them we look them in the eye, smiling. Dialogue within the whole system is restored. The process is friendly and open, with no preconception or dictation.

While the logical brain is an obstacle when it comes to unknown information, yet this is exactly where the source of healing dwells. The incoming sensory information, the sounds we work with, and playfulness go around this obstacle, leaving us rested and restored from the heavyweight champion of mind. This direct reception evokes an unusual, deep, and intensive process in which the body’s natural ability to heal itself is emphasized.

ILM

Az Ilan Lev Módszer (ILM) egy izraeli, holisztikus és szomatikus mozgásterápia. A módszer lényege, hogy érintésen keresztül vitalizálja az elmét és energetizálja a testet. A vázrendszeren keresztül a gravitáció és a testek tehetetlenségének segítségével hullámzó dialógus indul el. A ringatásnak az idegrendszer nem tud ellenállni: az áramlás felszabadítja a szervrendszerek eredeti mozgásterét, helyreállítja azok optimális működését és új kapcsolódásokat hoz létre neurológiai, mentális, végül fizikai szinten.

A víz az élet létrejöttének és egyedfejlődésünknek közege, testünk homeosztatikus mátrixa és az élet legalapvetőbb oldószere. A ringatás ehhez az otthonossághoz kapcsol vissza, aminek során életerő energia szabadul fel. Újszülöttként az életben maradás, immunitás, kapcsolódás, tanulás és növekedés elsődleges forrása az érintés.  Az érintés hiánya, kitaszítottság, fizikai sérülések, traumák mind elraktározódnak bennünk. Biztonságos közegben a test elkezd beszélni és a kezelések során ezek az elakadások a felszínre vetődhetnek. Emlékképek, sérüléseknél félbeszakadt mozdulatsorok, a traumatizálódás során ki nem fejezhető önvédelmi reakcióknak utat kapnak. Ezek az állatvilágból ismert stresszoldó mechanizmussal – légzéssel, rázással, vibrálással elkezdhetnek  feloldódni.

A biztonság érzete mellett a provokálás meglepő és váratlan időzítése összezavarja és kicselezi az analizáló elmét, hogy elengedje a test feletti, gyermekkor elmúltával beállt kontrollját. A szorongás átadja helyét a kíváncsiságnak és az intuíciónak. Az ítéletmentesség állapotában, a szükségtelen önvédelmi mechanizmusokat feloldva – a válaszok lentről-felfele és bentről-kifele kezdenek érkezni. Így ébred fel a test ősi, alkalmazkodni képes, egészséges és gyermeki bölcsessége.

3i

Moving to Israel and becoming familiar with its fascinating culture turned out to be a significant, life-changing experience for me. The wild, capricious, buzzing life and people’s love for life had a huge impact on me. The three sessions below are meant to bring the same flavors, passion and serenity to Hungary – in the language of movement, fantasy and touch. The collective name of these sessions is 3i, aka. Israel Inspired Improvisations.

The ‘3i WS’ is a guided, holistic journey – from meditation to electro party, with Israeli dance languages ​​and a DJ on board.

The human body is like an antenna: it senses everything, receives and stores everything that surrounds it. The metaphors used in the first half of the session empower our imagination and invigorate our conscious and unconscious self that continuously shape our plaster-like bodies kneading them into dance. The processing and integration of information results in the ultimate personal and unrepeatable form of movement, which is also the experience of meeting oneself and others. This has a transformative effect on a person as a whole.

3i always happens here and now, so there are no fixed forms, no two identical encounters. In the sessions the language of movement is inspired by the worlds of contemporary, floorwork, contact dance, Vertigo-language, gaga and that of the Ilan Lev Method. Improvisation can be challenging for many, but in this safe space metaphors revive the creative self. It teaches you to fight playfully as well as it gives you motivation to outgrow your comfort zone. Through the group experience, we playfully learn and teach ourselves. 3i connects us back to our raw selves – combining the curiosity of a child and the passion of maturity. In the joy of movement, our darker parts and mistakes turn into possibilities, as self-criticism melts away and the moment flies us into the present. The whole session culminates into a party.

Who do I recommend it to? For both amateurs and professionals. Those who want to step away from everyday life and want to have a really good dance. Those who are looking for the inner child and spice in their life; those who want to connect to their feminine and masculine energies. Those who are seeking the meaning behind the body and form. Those who want to connect or make peace with their bodies and want to get to know themselves in a truly intimate way, so that we can learn how to celebrate again.

UNDOING is a group session based on touch, with a focus on renewal and joy. It provides an insight into the intimate world of touch, empathy and presence, and goes further with the Ilan Lev Method®. Touch is our only direct connection to the world through our skin. In addition to its effect of strengthening the immune system and reducing verbal and physical aggression, it is necessary for mental health and normal physical growth, as it enables healthy human connections, from boundary setting to sexuality.

The session consists of two parts. In the beginning we learn how to break playfully the continuity of the past and arrive to the very moment by moving without judgment and integration. In the second part, I lead the participants through exercises as couples; they learn how to resolve and let things go through repeatable exercises using the power of intuition, empathy and safe space. During the rest of the week, the participants are encouraged to practise on their friends and loved ones at home. Topics such as wave-like nature, skin, intuition, DNA, etc. help the participants gain a deeper understanding of ‘undoing’.

In the 15th session, there will be a friendly “exam” and feedback, which also provides an opportunity for further development. In addition to that, there is one opportunity for a private practical consultation on 16th meeting, when the roles are reversed, so that I can give feedback from within. In addition, there will also be an opportunity for participants to continue learning with me privately – at a set price.

In this plastic state of being – where images and associations allow us to see the universality of phenomenas – we realize that things have always belonged together. For this reason, the course is called UNDOING. The sessions generate extreme transparency, vitality and joy.

Closed group, 15+1 occasions, 2-hour sessions each.
Maximum number of participants: 8 ppl.

The body is our common heritage – through which we join the great dance of Life as well as our opportunity to restore relationships. REBOOT is designed for couples who want to relearn and trust each other through the medium of touch.

The sessions are based on the Ilan Lev Method that connects us to our primal living space, water, through rocking and shaking. Water connects continents, the sky and the Earth, it is a 3D living space that supports and floats creatures, nonetheless having no smell or colour. It is neutral, yet 70 percent of our body is made of water. So, at REBOOT we learn how to be present for the benefit of other without effort. On the other hand, it allows us to become a child in the hands of our partner – to reveal ourselves and to discover our partner’s true and timeless beauty. In this and attentive safe space that we ourselves turn into, the other person can give weight fully. Because of the heart-felt openness and transparency, the fruits of intimacy begin to yield in the first meeting. In this accepting environment we begin to examine the creature in our hands through the eyes of the Creator – with unconditional love. The one you can’t do anything else to, but to choose again, and allow yourself to fall in love with her/him again.

Finally, REBOOT provides an approach based on movement, which not only revives sexuality but it also teaches us to connect generously, peacefully and lovingly first to ourselves, then to our partners, our children, our parents and to our wider environment.

I warmly recommend these meetings to engaged or married couples as well as for those who are participating in couples’ therapy to sort out and restart their relationship on an elementary level.

My presence is supportive and transparent. My role is to encourage and to lead the parties to open up and show tricks and tracks associated with the technique. Meetings happen fully dressed and it is highly recommended to practice at home with each other!

The package includes 4 meetings, 2 hours long each.

"Here I can embrace my flirting-self with elegancy and bestiality. My felt sense is a constant state prior to orgasm as all my cells are invited to struggle, sweat and breathe."

Johanna | WS

"I could spend forever having this personal dialogue between my body and spirit. Feeling like a careless child with a wish to play and flirt with the unexpected. On the other hand connecting to my ancient spirit and intuition, as a sexual being. Heavenism."

Lotem | Undoing

"What I appreciated the most about the Undoing course was the connection between theory and practice, science and art, depth and heights, individual and universal. In this way I find it easier to connect to an idea and integrate it into my everyday life."

"The class’ drifting forces raptures like a typhoon: coming, catching up, twisting and tearing. In the end - although puzzled and out of breath I find myself re-assembled. And the only thing I know: I just want to start it over and over again."

Panna | WS

"The class is an invitation. Each of them is different yet always an exploration to heal emotional wounds: sweating out the daily stress and breaking inherited patterns. With the challenge accepted one transcends into a place far from this physical world."

Sacha | WS

"Here we gather together from different cultures, countries and with various stories. I have a feeling that this particular class is a place of reconnecting that forms our gatherings into a celebration. Dancing here grants me the salt of life."

Dóri | WS

"During the ILM treatments you are asked to suspend your disbelief as you are lulled into a state of meditative hypnosis. What you will discover on the other side is a mystery, and never quite the same. For me the treatment is about trusting the journey without judgment on either side."
