This Moment

The chance that we would move in the same way once we start peeling off habits, altering trained coordination, and giving an idea of what movement should look like, is very unlikely. Our anatomy gives us all limits and possibilities. What about the marks and footprints that training leaves behind? How can we let go of certain mechanics in our bodies to create freedom, freedom to make technical and artistic choices?

Being present in this moment, in every fibre of our body, offers space to body and mind to make that journey. Working in small groups can offer the moving body support, surprise and challenge. Through different improvisation exercises we will focus on the physical work, and on the space around and between us. We will practise using our physical intelligence in order to deal with internal and external information.
