Cycle focus:
This cycle will focus on LUDUS Becoming & LUDUS Plastiline.
What if we are not just occupying space but becoming space? Would it change the way we inhabit the world? Can we imagine we can exist as one in multiple spaces? How can we dissociate some parts to experience multiplicities in our bodies?
Stimulate your imagination, enrich your creativity, and expand your notions of body, space, and time while challenging euro-centric dance and performance training frameworks.
We will practice expanding states of consciousness and togetherness to enable multiple realms of perception and utilize improvisation as a means of personal exploration. Each dancer’s physical potential is cultivated to develop a unique movement language rooted in transformation. Together we will decentralize self-centered approaches to movement and explore the possibilities of “being danced by” instead of “ I dance,” “becoming space-body” rather than occupying space. We will challenge our body’s materiality and enliven our sensorium through listening to the rhythms and textures of the non-human. And we will use impossibility as a spark to enrich the ways in which we create and inhabit the world.
Who should apply?
The LEIMAY LUDUS Training Group is open to dancers, movement artists, actors, directors, performers as well as humans with a focused interest in connecting deeply to the LUDUS practice.
