The workshop will not be a traditional swimming class but instead will focus
on various water based challenges, motions, exploratory drills and situations:
Modes to be explored:
• Interacting with the ground through the vertical and horizontal axises
•Partnering interaction based on diverse dynamic systems
•Movement Improvisation as a platform of exploration,
development and research
•Voice and tonality interaction
In no place so far has the Movement Practice been presented in a holistic and
detailed fashion, the lecture will focus on mapping the territory and presenting its
unique features:
• Philosophy • Etiquette
• Practicum • Direction
• Ethics • Community
Movement cannot be separated by the structure that occupies it and the context
in which it occurs. The environment in which we move in is a huge component
that is informing and molding our movement and.... us.
The lecture will provide a unique historical wide panoramic scan of the assortment
of disciplines and practices that emerged out of various environments and the
challenges they offer, interesting figures and innovators and feats that were
performed in urban and/or natural settings.
To conclude a unifying look at the role and place of the Environmental Movement
Practice inside the bigger picture Movement Practice, including review and
discussion of:
• Unique features of the practices focused and stemming from the environment
• Movement as a center focus and environment as a secondary feature, a stage
VS environment as a center focus and movement being directed by it
• The city and us - a cage of gold or the ultimate playground?
• Practical session examples exposed and explained
• The current state of art and future directions
