This workshop is an exploration – an exploration of individuality, a training in perception and strength. Through exercises in improvisation, partnering in contact and basic elements of composition, it allows to discover what stimulates our imagination and bodies in the process of performing and creating dance, both when working on a solo and in a group. In the process of choreographing, I am interested in all the traces of experiences and memories recorded in our bodies and their movements, and how we are able to communicate them to the audience and the world. The tool of our work will be embodied cognition allowing for exploration of emotions in space, and our practice will be based on exploration of presence and mindfulness training – conscious awareness of the present moment. The awareness developed in this way will lead us to improvisation and further, towards composition.
