THE PRACTICEtools for movement development & exploration
The objective of this workshop is to provide specific technical tools for deepening and developing movement and exploration capabilities.
The work is inclusive for all levels, since the tools that are shared can be covered from the experience that each person has. Always respecting the personal possibilities, I do not push or pretend a specific result but invite to have an authentic experience.
I use exploration as a vehicle to integrate, dynamize and test the given tools in dialogue with the own possibilities and backgrounds.
I propose a concrete methodology that can be learned and applied to technical research in any discipline as well as in the area of artistic creation. Part of this methodology proposes strategies to generate self-management and independence for the development of personal practices.

ABOUT LUCIA TOKER:
Lucía Toker is a dancer and acrobat dedicated to movement and pedagogical research.
She has been developing her teaching for more than 13 years. Her work concept is to constantly update and search for technical tools and methodological strategies to facilitate the connection and development of the movement practice for people with all levels of experience.
Originally from Buenos Aires, Lucia works regularly giving classes in professional dance programs, workshops and seminars throughout Argentina and Europe. Her training started from a very young age and crossed through different disciplines and techniques, such as gymnastics, floor acrobatics, tango, flamenco, contemporary dance, improvisation, rehabilitation techniques, physical therapies, physical training and theoretical studies related to the human body.
She participated in the residency Bows & Arrows 2018, in Italy, invited by Tom Weksler, with whom she thereafter performed a mentorship program. As a performer, she worked several years dedicated to scenic creation. In the last few years, she decided to dedicate her time exclusively to research and teaching. Some of her latest works are “Collision”, developed in the artistic residency Circo Futuro, together with the group “OM” in Fortaleza, Brazil, in 2019.
“Lo que queda” and “Mar arriba”, both solo pieces, developed in co-production with paz ladrón de guevara, were performed in different festivals and theaters in Buenos Aires.
