Ludus Lab with Voice and Body artist Ben Spatz

Ben Spatz’s LEIMAY Ludus Lab will be an exploration of song action: how the act of singing can transform bodies, spaces, and attention. Come and discover new relationships between individual and ensemble, actor and audience, training and performance! This workshop draws materials from a variety of traditional and contemporary sources to sustain a dynamic flow between physical and vocal action. We will work through fundamental techniques of impulse, rhythm, sensitivity, and association to find moments of meaningful non discursive contact with ourselves and with each other. Emphasis is placed on commitment and play within simple but rigorous structures of the body and voice. This workshop is intended for practitioners of martial, healing, or, performing arts who wish to extend the depth, precision, and strength of their embodied practice by connecting breath, sound, and action.
