Physical Theatre POOL

PT POOL

In this 90-minute evening session of our regular training, we will focus on exploring the ‘performative’ condition through play, physical communication and movement. We will propose exercises inspired by the diversity of Physical Theatre practices, such as: Grotowski training, Dance Improvisaton, Butoh, Biomechanics, Performance Art, Viewpoints, Contact Improvisation, improvisational theatre, Contemporary Dance, emotional practice, etc).

Sometimes we will take a more technical approach, at other times we will let ourselves be carried away by improvisation and games. Within a class, the focus may shift from person-to-person communication to in-group communication or even to communication with one’s own body & self. 

Some aspects that we aim to bring to the class:

  • Building up stamina as well as strength and flexibility (physical and mental)
  • Working on permeability (e.g. for emotions or states)
  • Perception, coordination & presence
  • Bodily listening and communication (with a partner/others/self)
  • Coordination & composition in space
  • Using body anatomy & somatic practices for deeper exploration
  • Performative games to stimulate creativity

The training will have alternating teachers. Due to their personal approach, each class will certainly have a different character.

This is an open level class and it is suitable for:
beginners interested in performing arts and body-centered disciplines / professionals looking for unorthodox approaches / dilettantes looking for pepper for their salad.
