Details
This workshop involves dance practices that focus on care and pleasure in the body. Working with intentions – such as ‘move as a practice of care for your body’ and ‘follow the thread of pleasure’ – this relaxed and welcoming workshop will involve gentle prompts from which to explore your own movement. Movement is improvised in response to the invitations or prompts.
The practices shared in this workshop have been developed by the artist in response to living with chronic pain and her research into what it means to dance with pain. She has developed ways of approaching choreography in response to the questions: What does it mean to collaborate creatively with pain? How can we work creatively with our bodies as they are? What kinds of movement emerge when the intention is to care for your body?
