📖𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:
In this workshop, I focus on Flying Low technique, sharing my knowledge and passion from my extensive training with David Zambrano, the founder of Flying Low.

Flying Low technique focuses mainly on the dancer’s relationship with the floor. The class utilizes simple movement patterns that involve breathing, speed and the release of energy throughout the body in order to activate the relationship between the center and the joints, moving in and out of the ground more efficiently by maintaining a centered state. There is a focus on the skeletal structure that will help improve the dancer’s physical perception and alertness. The class includes partnering work and movement phrases, which explore the primary laws of physics: cohesion and expansion.

💖𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿:
𝗠𝗼𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗿𝗲𝘇𝗮 (𝗠𝗼𝗺𝗼) 𝗔𝗸𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗶 is an Iranian-Canadian dance and interdisciplinary artist whose work spans Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, San Francisco, and Brussels. With a multifaceted background in mathematics, physics, and theater, Momo brings a unique perspective as a creator, dancer, and teacher. His diverse dance lineage encompasses Flying Low/Passing Through/Improvisation with David Zambrano, Butoh/Noguchi Taiso with Atsushi Takenouchi and Imre Thorman, and Grotowski/post-Grotowski theater. His physical practice is enriched by martial arts such as Wing Chun, Escrima, and Chi Kung.

Momo has taught at various institutions including Simon Fraser University, Dance Arts Institute (formerly Toronto Dance Theatre) in Toronto, UC Berkeley, Studio 303 (Montreal), ODC (San Francisco), and BOE (San Francisco). His teaching philosophy integrates his dance lineage, personal practice, and life experiences, fostering an inclusive and exploratory learning environment.

Momo is mentoring PhD candidate Ane Iselin Brogeland at the University of Stavanger on a project exploring dance improvisation and grief. He was invited by David Zambrano to participate in research at TicTac art center and to perform at its anniversary alongside world-renowned artists like Sasha Waltz, Ivo Dimchev, Thomas Hauert, and Yoshiko Chuma.

Momo’s artistic practice explores the intersection of dance, image, and sound to shift perceptions of time and self. Grounded in his lived reality in Iran, his projects examine bodily autonomy and collective agency. Committed to questioning artistic norms, Momo creates environments that foster exploration, driven by his fascination with epistemology, playfulness, and cultural appropriation.
