Release Technique

This class invites us first to watch and feel the physical body, its weight, the rhythm of breath, the base of the body which touches the floor and the body’s parts. The class then evolves into physical movement in space. This technique relies, among other methods, on our understanding of the skeletal structure and empowering the awareness of correct posture.  A connection between the head’s crown and the tailbone creates a clear axis, a connection from the body center to the extremities, a limb clearly leads – “making room” for the motion to ripple through the entire body. These are some examples of the principles that guide the Release Technique. This language of movement is realized via constructed exercises and guidelines for improvisation. A good way of thinking about this method is as a release from harmful patterns and a return to a simple, grounded and soft movement that leave plenty of space for personal expression, external and internal imagery and simple enjoyment.  

 

Improvisation

Study the body using physical guidelines and by learning various motion languages. How does abstract movement enables emotional labor and produces concrete elements – stories, figures, situations, associations? In this course, we will enhance body work and real-time decision-making; and learn to enjoy the lack of knowledge and the mistakes with their own wealth. Alone, in pairs and as a group, we will study various subjects, improvising in a defined and limited environment. We will experience performance, short exhibitions and improvisation-building. Practice and improve the improvisational skills to create dances on stage

​

We believe in the strong connection between the Release Technique and Improvisation, and recommend taking both consecutive classes.
