Every Mind Diffused
the meaning of movement

"I see movement as the relationship between physical and emotional states expressing what is impossible to communicate verbally. For me, movement is a personal and universal expression free from classification."
The workshop focuses on creating, inhabiting and maintaining states of being. Filtering out expectations, prejudices, influences and even personal movement ethics we search for an original language that is expressive and ambiguous. Persistence, curiosity, polarity, and wry humor are key words for working with the specific tasks asked.



Ted Stoffer
Ted Stoffer formed Aphasia Dance Company in 1998 to create a framework in which to investigate the language of the human body. He believes in the observation of the rhythms of breath, thought, action, reaction and contemplation in the initiation of ones' intent allowing universalism in the individual expression to be revealed. He has danced with Scapino Ballet Rotterdam, Rambert Dance Company, Sasha Waltz and various freelance choreographers. He is teaching regular for Ultima Vez, Rosas, Charleroi Danses, Sasha Waltz and various open classes around Europe.
