Alex Svoboda, dr. je učitelj zavestnega plesa, moderator in ustanovitelj freedomDANCE, šole in metode plesne meditacije in zavestnega gibanja, ustanovljene leta 2009. Znan je po razvoju dostopnega, a hkrati globinsko usmerjenega pristopa k meditaciji, ki temelji na gibanju in združuje utelešenje, čustveno zavedanje in osebno raziskovanje.
Alex Svoboda živi v Londonu in poučuje mednarodno prek tečajev, delavnic, umikov in programov usposabljanja učiteljev.
Ozadje
Alex Svoboda je živel in delal v Rusiji, Združenih državah Amerike in Združenem kraljestvu. Študiral je na več univerzah in fakultetah ter opravil doktorat. Preden se je v celoti osredotočil na zavestno gibanje, je delal kot analitik in vodja v večjih mednarodnih organizacijah, vključno z globalnim svetovalnim podjetjem za management McKinsey & Company.
Svoboda je poleg svoje korporativne kariere delal kot univerzitetni inštruktor in kot moderator korporativnega usposabljanja, izkušnje, ki so kasneje vplivale na njegov strukturiran, a izkustveni slog poučevanja zavestnega plesa.
Plesno in gibalno usposabljanje
Alex Svoboda se je neposredno usposabljal pri več pionirjih sodobnega zavestnega plesa, vključno z:
- Anna Halprin
- Gabrielle Roth (ustanoviteljica 5Rhythms)
Izobraževal se je tudi pri drugih uglednih učiteljih na področju zavestnega plesa in gibanja. Na njegovo delo vplivajo somatska praksa, gibalna improvizacija, meditacija in izkustveno učenje.
Svoboda je naveden tudi kot učitelj Open Floor in je povezan s širšo mednarodno skupnostjo zavestnega gibanja.
freedomDANCE
Alex Svoboda je ustanovitelj in glavni razvijalec freedomDANCE, metode plesne meditacije, zgrajene okoli ponavljajoče se strukture, znane kot freedomDANCE cikel:
- Odprtje
- Transformacija
- Svoboda
The method emphasises spontaneity, absence of choreography, and movement as a direct pathway to awareness beyond habitual thinking. freedomDANCE is designed to be accessible to people without prior dance or meditation experience, while still supporting deep personal and emotional exploration.
Through the freedomDANCE School, Svoboda trains teachers and supports an international network of practitioners. As of the mid-2020s, the school includes approximately 25 core teachers and trainees and offers programmes in multiple countries as well as online.
Teaching philosophy
Svoboda frequently describes freedomDANCE as an opportunity to experience different dimensions of freedom, including physical, psychological, and relational freedom. In his own words, each class offers:
- “Freedom for the body to take over.
- Freedom for the mind to notice and accept what is happening inside ourselves and around us.
- Freedom to open to something bigger, something that transcends everyday ideas and calculations.
- Freedom to be yourself and share yourself with others.”
His teaching style is characterised by guided improvisation, carefully structured movement journeys, use of music and soundscapes, and an emphasis on presence rather than performance.
Teacher training and professional affiliations
Alex Svoboda has led freedomDANCE teacher training programmes since 2014. These programmes are fully accredited by the International Conscious Movement Teachers Association (ICMTA). He is an individual member of ICMTA, and freedomDANCE teachers and trainees adhere to the ICMTA Code of Ethics.
Reception
Participants frequently describe Svoboda’s teaching as grounded, present, and transformative. Publicly shared feedback highlights his clarity of guidance, musicality, emotional sensitivity, and ability to support both individual and collective processes.
Selected participant statements include:
- “You have real, soft, palpable presence… When you speak, I listen. It’s always worth it.”
- “I felt stretched in a really beautiful way — dancing outside my usual patterns.”
- “Your workshop was a marathon of the heart and soul.”
- “I left feeling more fully human.”
