Workshop
During the workshop we will use the impulse of electronic and techno music to let the body go into a trance, in a repetitive yet circular way of moving, a primitive response to the sound to bring up an animal way of moving.
We will organise and deconstruct our gestures, our moves, our body, constantly reaching for stimulation and surprise, exploring different qualities of movement through fluid or released phrases as well as others more abrupt or contracted. The dance varies between linearity and animality with a constant quest of strong and unusual physicalities.
We will explore a vast spectrum of movement qualities and use guided improvisation to find the many characters that are hidden in each of us
