Nomadic Roots with Miguel Viero

Nomadic Roots is a project by Miguel Viero and Peti Costa that aims to deepen the research and development of a methodology based on Fighting Monkey*.

Nomadic Roots is a platform for research and exchange of ideas around traditional oriental dance and arts, with the aim of investigating and crossing the basic principles and concepts of human movement and developing training strategies and creative processes that increase expressive capacity. and communication of the body in dynamic and complex environments. In this workshop, the game will be the catalyst of our interactions with the space-time-object-partners. Through open games that provoke our adaptive capacity, they refine our decision-making both in individual contexts and in shared environments and expand our body and spatial awareness and our repertoire of movement. We will play with the plasticity of our imagination through physical and creative challenges using it as a source of instantaneous composition.

During this meeting we are going to provoke and explore, through movement, our enormous and innate potential for creative expression together with our communication skills to face the challenges of our day to day. Our goal is to experience this together through the following practices:

-Quietness: an observation practice. A look inside, with the purpose of learning more about ourselves. Listen to the inner movement, the silence that speaks. Gathering this information allows us to map our landscape, plan our practices, adjust our priorities, both in training and in everyday life, and cultivate mindfulness, intention, and awareness.

-Integrative Joint Mobility: a practice that provides tools to develop an intelligent body that can manage and navigate the natural instability of the human structure. Improve communication, collaboration and coordination between all joints while promoting the maintenance of mobility and joint health. This practice is inspired by Fighting Monkey's Zero Forms, as well as traditional oriental arts.

-Movement Situations: Let the essence of your movement emerge with open games that provoke your creativity, rhythm, coordination and adaptability to dynamic and unpredictable situations, present in creative processes and in our daily life.

-Coordinations: Complex sequences of expansive movements that expose our behavior in the face of adversity, learning strategies, automated movement patterns and our openness to get out of the ordinary and venture into the unknown.

-Improvisation: Tools and proposals to develop and cultivate the ability to make decisions in complex and unpredictable situations, stimulating the process of instantaneous composition.
