The Taiji in improvisation- instant composition workshop -
The workshop aims to integrate the basic principles of Taiji with instant composition and improvisational dance.
Taiji is a term in Chinese philosophy used to refer to the "supreme ultimate" state of the undifferentiated absolute and infinite potential, the Unity before dualism, from which duality (in-out, high-low, movement-quiet...) originates. Taiji in this sense works deeply on both aspects of the human being (the physical and mental aspects) while succeeding at the same time to integrate them into an effective and conscious Unity. The seeking of Unity and completeness of the movement will be a recurring topic throughout the workshop.
The technical and anatomical aspect of body will take great space within the workshop:
moving with ease, without-effort (center of gravity and balance);
tangible body and extended mind (bones, joints and axes);
perception, stream of consciousness and ‘states’ of mind;
support and gravity (efficiency and effectiveness in movement);
Once the principles of Taiji have been studied and practiced, the class will turn to the creative aspect of dance, namely instant composition. In this part of the course we will participate in and create dances and compositions to improve our ability to navigate and create performances and to read and understand them.
This workshop is a unique adventure that elevates the practice of dance and instant composition to new heights of awareness and artistic expression.
