about the sessions
๐ซ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฌ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐โข is an embodiment-based dance/movement practice. This approach invites participants to perceive and connect with the fluid body. By attuning oneself sensorially and physically to the flowing movement dynamics of the craniosacral system and its phenomena of stillness, a unique approach to movement research emerges.
The performance practice ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ช๐๐๐๐๐ deepens the perceptual connection to the visual field. It pursues a cinematic approach to movement, expanding tools for the performance of being seen. This session opens up a space of experience for sensory refinement & the discovery of new movement patterns though guided movement meditations, improvised compositions & live cinematic observations.
