Zerostation

From the organizer:

You are invited to join the “Movement Kitchen” Workshop by Emily Navarra. After receiving such positive and warm feedback for “Shhh! Just dance!” Workshop, Emily is now bringing you the “Movement Kitchen” workshop in hope of offering the chance to experience yourself via choreographic movements.

The workshop includes 2 part:

*10 am – 12 pm: Release/Reaction/Response:
– An improvisation-based class that will focus on each dancer’s physical response to various stimuli, presented in the moment.
– Starting from the floor up, this class will highlight and investigate the ‘basics’ of the ‘release’ technique.
– Additional work includes partnering and group structures to help dancers increase a keen sense of awareness through their physicality, energy, rhythm, personal choice, risk taking and celebration of limitations. Excellent for complete beginners wanting to add another dimension to their dancing.

*Lunch

*1 pm – 3 pm: Choreographic Devices/Environmental Movement Exploration:
– An initial emphasis on compositional structure fused with environmental surroundings. We use these ideas as a springboard to create new devices for expanding and inventing material.
– Through group dynamics we focus on listening, questioning, communicating and challenging ourselves through movement and moments of stillness.
– A large body of material will be created, varied and manipulated both in and out of the studio, while pushing towards the development of a new work utilizing the material built in class.

*Workshop fee: 550.000 VND (lunch included)
*In order for preparation, a deposit should be given in advance. Deposit fee: 275.000 VND
