Tools, principles, techniques, structures and concepts of improvisation are applied to individual, social and general phenomena in order to create a performance that is in the moment for the audience – something which they can relate to and interpret in the context of their own lives.
The intensive workshop is intended for trained dancers and other professionals involved with motion, such as in the fields of circus, martial arts and dance education. It is important that a participant has already developed an awareness of his/her own body and a knowledge of the language of movement, as this will be used as the technical base for improvisation tools upon which personal individualization can be built.
No matter what motion style participants are experienced in, the goal of the workshop is to allow them to discover their own language of movement and individual expression, to establish a personal journey as a performer and a creative artist.
The workshop is a valuable addition to classic dance training which foregrounds established techniques and their reproduction. It is also aimed at dancers who are already very familiar with the methods of improvisation, as we o er ways to further develop these methods so as to connect and apply them to the contemporary art principles and current social or political issues. The content of the workshop is varied and intense. It is taught in such a way that you’ll be able to work on your own even after the workshop.
