Atsushi Takenouchi
NEW YORK BUTOH KAN TRAINING INITIATIVE: INTENSIVE
(weekdays 10:00am – 2:00pm / weekends 11:00am – 3:00pm)
-Yin/Yang, life and death-
Our aim is to express the various souls that live in the vast cycle of JINEN — cycles of day and night, life and death. We will focus on embracing the souls that were ignored or pushed away by society, or who suffered mental/physical disturbances. By dancing these souls, we encounter our inner darkness, reinterpret darkness as a real effusion of life and light. You will be advised as to which physical and spiritual conditions you should approach, to awaken the movement sleeping within you into technique.
