Αυτό το εργαστήριο στοχεύει στην ενίσχυση της προσαρμοστικότητας κάθε ατόμου μέσω της ανάπτυξης οξείας επίγνωσης του σώματος. Καθοδηγούμενοι σε μια συνεχή εξερεύνηση, οι συμμετέχοντες συνδέονται με κάθε μέρος του σώματός τους, προωθώντας μεγαλύτερη ευαισθησία, κινητικότητα και αυθορμητισμό. Ενσωματώνοντας σωματικές, διαλογιστικές και χορευτικές πρακτικές, κάθε χειρονομία αποκτά προέλευση και σκοπό μέσα από την εξερεύνηση διαφόρων κινητικών συστημάτων. Μαθαίνουμε να προκαλούμε με συνέπεια τον εαυτό μας, μεταβαίνοντας ομαλά από τη μία κατάσταση στην άλλη, παίζοντας με την ένταση, την ταχύτητα και την υφή. Ανταποκρινόμενοι σε αυτές τις προτάσεις, απελευθερωνόμαστε από καθιερωμένα μοτίβα, επιτρέποντας την ανάπτυξη νέων τρόπων αντίληψης και δημιουργίας κίνησης. Αυτές οι αρχές εφαρμόζονται και εξασκούνται στο τέλος του εργαστηρίου με τη δημιουργία μιας χορογραφικής φράσης ή την εκμάθηση ρεπερτορίου από την ομάδα.

This workshop aims to enhance the adaptability of each individual through the development of acute body awareness. Guided in a continuous exploration, participants connect with every part of their bodies, fostering greater sensitivity, mobility, and spontaneity. By integrating somatic, meditation and dance practices, each gesture gains origin and purpose through the exploration of various movement systems. We learn to consistently challenge ourselves, smoothly transitioning from one state to another, playing with intensity, speed, and texture. In response to these suggestions, we break free from established patterns, enabling the development of new ways of perceiving and generating movement. These principles are then applied and practiced at the end of the workshop by creating a choreographic phrase or learning repertoire from the company.
