LIVING BODIES is a 2 hours class held monthly in Florence on Sundays and open to anyone.
It is meant to be a safe place to explore the pleasure of reconnecting to ones body and emotions through a guided path that alternates release and contemporary based session to structured improvisation based on Butoh elements.
Dancers and non-dancers alike, we are today subjected to a visual, sound and experiential hyperstimulation that makes it increasingly difficult to travel the road towards simplicity and listening to oneself, and makes it all the more necessary. Starting from the body, making it an instrument of play, using images to override ideas, recovering an inner vision before an outer one, and above all dancing in relation to others can become for everyone a path in search of a more sincere and easier self-expression. It can stimulate creativity and veil imaginative processes, contributing to creating a world populated by ‘living bodies’.
“In fact, because nothing can be by itself alone, no one can be by himself or herself alone, everyone has to inter-be with every one else. That is why, when you look outside, around you, you can see yourself.
And when you look into yourself, you can see the world outside.
So that is a training.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
