With Dafni Stefanou

Thursday-Friday 27-28 October

18.00 - 21.00 Saturday 29 October 10.00-13.00 

The first section of the course is inspired by the technique Skinner ReleasingGiving emphasis mainly to the skeletal structure and to the skin, and supported by the basic principles of mechanical physics, we give way to the force of gravity, and we allow the body to move within space freed from excessive tension.

The second section concerns the relationship between the body and time and space.  Once we have warmed up the body, we proceed to compositional exercises. We follow the choreography which is being created minute by minute, observing details such as the musicality and the poetry of geometry.

Price: €60 – students €50 (The workshop is designed for dancers, actors, musicians, and also more generally for those who have worked with movement and improvisation.)
