BODY AWARENESS AND INTERACTIVITY
Rucka Artist Residency
Cecis, Latvia
26. June – 1. July 2016
Get in touch with your body and find a connection to others
through meditation and movement.
This 5 day intensive training will make you more grounded in the body and present. It will dissolve that which blocks your awareness, mobility, creativity and ability to interact with space, time and other people.
PHYSICAL THEATER training integrates the physical body and movement with emotion and voice. It intensifies performers presence on stage so that the expression and impact on the audience becomes stronger, more tangible, more real and essential.
AWARENESS TRAINING includes meditation, breathing as a tool, exploring energy and presence, space awareness, body awareness, and other techniques.
FOR WHOM
The workshop is open to all, who have a functioning body and a stable psyche. The training is for those who love Presence, Sweat and Concentrated hard work, for those who are willing to dedicate themselves to the tough and honest work, the training, the group.
Be prepared for hard physical work that will bring you to new experiences in the field of body and interactivity revealing new tools and abilities for stage and for life!
