workshops and classes

 

Ongoing training and explorational workshops continue to this day. > The workshops combines Butoh, physho-physical training methods and Asian shamanistic trance dance. > The workshops incorporates a training methodology that aims to develop spontaneity, letting the body find its own individual language in psycho-physical expression. > Ultimately the dance becomes the expression of the body as it finds itself and its own movement. > This is a process to return to the body to the creative energy that inspires movement. > Rather than aspiring to an aesthetic ideal, the dancer attempts to expose elements of life through exploring the most fundamental physical and psychological elements.
