In this workshop I propose to articulate our "dance discourse". We will explore the expressive power of dance in the abstract. Through improvisation and guided exercises we will establish a common vocabulary with which to communicate. We will experience the body as a mobile architecture that is transformed, we will investigate some of its infinite possibilities by working on different dynamics, textures and qualities of movement.

We will work on the musicality of our movement, such as talking or singing with the body, and our relationship with space, our stroke, drawing and its duration. The aim is to challenge the ephemeral and thus transform our perception of time and space. We will start from physical principles, to then get to the emotion of the performer and the receiver.
