PARTNERING
Relationships, contact zones which connect us. Paradoxical places which are both, turbulent and reassuring. Spaces which highlight the dialogue and its absence. Places of passage, transition, transformation and transmission. Epidermis which reveal what exists in the space “in-between”. This workshop is based on technical and choreographic know-how Partnering. Two bodies which enter into dialogue through dance, through weight sharing, through the articulation of gestures, through flying! |
LIFTING-SUPPORTING, ITS PRINCIPLES AND BASES
We open a space for discovery of the practice of contact-improvisation and its basic technical elements. We will go through the notions of momentum, weight transfer, fall, touch, kinesphere and carrying. These are essential elements to allow the reception of the weight of the other's body and to manage the physical contact between bodies before and during the dance. |
This workshop explores the frontiers between dance and theatre. Through the combination of gesture and intention, improvisation and choreographic work, theatrical situation and physical sensation, we seek to construct meaning from movement, avoiding to approach it through an intellectual analysis.
The proposal starts from a chosen technical element: rhythm, causality, gesture, weight transfer, contact or listening. Participants are invited to experience moments of improvisation and instant composition individually, in duos and in groups. Then, we identify the situations that emerged during the improvisations in order to clarify and organize them in space and time. The session ends with a representation-performance of the work. |
DAN(S) LE QUARTIER
Nous proposons une série de laboratoires autour du mouvement, de l'expression corporelle et de la danse. Les séances sont destinées à toutes personnes qui aiment le mouvement, habitantes de Montreuil et d'ailleurs à partir de 18 ans. Notre désir est de créer un espace de rencontre et d'échanges autour de la danse. Le Centre Pablo Picasso est localisé en plein quartier et il accueille des activités sociales en lien avec la communauté locale. |
