The workshop draws upon our connection with intuitive, immediate forms and actions through which we create and relate to choreographic realms. Physical and mind opening; the practice is generated from improvisational solo and partnering work, relation to space and time through a lense of singularity and complexity. Immersion and an open-ended approach direct us towards elements such as; memory, discovery, layered listening, vibration, (in)direct connection with partner/s, mastered-motion at different rates of speed, intimate presence - individually and collectively, radiance of the intangible through the physical.
