The Poetics of Performance

This workshop uses Eastern and Western concepts to give partcipants the tools of inner presence through impulse, image and imagination. Exercises culled from Butoh, Laban, Authentic Movement and Meditation will direct mover to deeper concentration and experience as it emerges from within. From this place we will create movement from Haiku (Japanese poetry) with materials such as paper, fabric, stones, and bamboo. This is an opportunity for performers and others interested in exploring their inner landscape and spirit.

Authentic Movement is way to explore ones inner reality through movement.
