"The Poetry of the body" - Dance/Improvisation/Action theater Workshop Series

In this workshop, we will explore how to dedicate ourselves entirely and uniquely to the present moment, keeping ourselves engaged, interested and fascinated by our inner landscapes in a dance of becoming and disappearing. We will compose poems and short pieces using simple and joyful tasks of improvisation alone, in couples or groups. Learning how to listen to yourself and to others, flexibilizing your thinking and follow your creative source and expression.

We will study how to:

- Create material when there is nothing else present (others / objects)

- Connect to our inner stream of energy and expression (follow the inner guide)

- Dance tuning in our senses and feelings

- Practice commitment to what is happening and is already there, validating our experience

- Follow without judgment

- Unleash our potential

- Put attention in what is already happening and not in what should/could happen, but didn’t.

- Unveil your Enthusiasm and Joy

- Convert the inner critic into our ally

In this four-hour hour workshop we will dive deeper in order to set ourselves free from the dictatorship of the inner critic, the logical thinking, and the literal meaning; Discovering the symbolic and poetic language we all have.

You’ll learn to:

Trust and follow yourself wherever you go, lose control, follow the course of the wild, make your mind more flexible, increase positive thinking and feeling, amplify possibilities of being and existing in the world.

Please bring comfortable clothing and a notebook.
