Fountains of expressive flow

—————————————

we practice accessing our individual deeper logic of sensation, movement and  creation, within the affective context of the collective.

We engage our inner resources, such as perception, intuition, action, and find the pleasures and necessities for specificity and precision , softness and rigor in our dancing,  striving to open and shape our full expressive range. 

A central  focus will be given to the spine as inexhaustible fountain of information, column of the body´s countless shapes, channel of impression and expression of the eternal play between inner and outer worlds.
