Fluxness
ranging from moments of intense physicality to the subtleties of somatic awareness, this practice weaves together the many ways i have constructed and deconstructed both floorwork and acrodance through various sensorial layers. using mainly improvisation, we will explore ways to both define and redefine our relationship with gravity through concepts such as becoming aware of the many ways we can use the points of contact we create with the floor, harnessing gravity as a movement generator, exploring the interplay between effort and ease in order to facilitate movement while releasing unnecessary rigidity, and understanding our body as a holistic organism; seeing it as a whole rather than separated, we will find ways to make our full body contribute to the movement. drawing from my background in acrobatics, we will approach inversions as expressions of our dance rather than tricks, integrating them into one’s own language. i do not differentiate between the way i deal with movement and how i deal with my daily life. my teaching is therefore a synthesis of things i am actively practising: awareness, challenge and playfulness. no acrobatic experience is needed in order to join the workshop.
the description reflects an artist’s idea which was developed at the time it was submitted to b12. it may have changed by the time the workshop or the performance project is starting. please stay flexible. thank you!
