Physical Verses

Find freedom and creativity

In this workshop we will work around certain choreographic ideas, some of them coming from previous creations. Exploring different qualities of movements, using intuition and personal background, each participant will be invited to develop and transform some taught repertory phrase or original ideas. How can one find freedom and creativity within a strict frame? We will use those physical concepts and imagery for compositions and improvisations.

PLEASE BRING SNEAKERS!!!!
