What can we do together to discover the world of movement? Can we enhance movement by working with rhythm and props? Can we build an open attitude to movement to support the unrestricted growth of a child’s personality? Can we free ourselves from our own tensions and the barriers within our body through physical contact with people we are close to? How do we discover movement that comes from within and is close to our own nature?

During the workshop, we will dance using natural and spontaneous movement that will work with the force of gravity. We will allow ourselves to discover the yet unknown potential of our bodies. Using exercises that verge on drama and miming, we will activate our imaginativeness, and create our own movement standards. We will be working solo, in pairs and in larger groups, based on impulses, gestures, distinctiveness and motor expression.

I aim to identify simple and universal principles that define movement. Working with the contemporary dance technique, and also with my own intuitively determined movement material and improvisation focused around contact with the ground, I seek an interesting language of artistic expression that builds a straightforward communication with the audience. In my teaching work, I follow a route in which the body affects the thought and the thought affects the body. This coexistence is the prerequisite for the creation of movement that is fully conscious whilst providing for a free flow of energy.
