We will dance in solo or dialogic contact between bodies, moving between somatic exploration, analysis, deep listening and dynamism. The encounters are divided into moments of theory, application, reflection and sharing, in order to access the complexity of the body in a titular and assimilable way.
Axis Syllabus, somatics, and biodynamic mindfulness nourish this research at its root, and their fruits are implicitly expressed in the dance.
This training is for dancers, actors, artists, and researchers who wish to investigation of the body in art and performance, enriching their somatic vocabulary and movement practice. It also open to people with little experience, inclined to encounter the body in terms of knowledge and research, in a safe and non-competitive group environment.
Salotto Somatico programs orient to a multifaceted view of the body, celebrating a dialogue between art, health and life.
