1 dec 15:00-19:00 & 2 dec 13:00-17:00: Workshop with Akira Yoshida
Akira Yoshida works with research and play. His exploration started through transformation of “Breakdance” language, and turned into other forms, shapes and dynamics. Right now it includes the use of the body anatomy, exploration of speed (from slow speed to fast speed), stamina, strengthening the strengths while working on the weaknesses, and the use of the qualities of the body to perform a big range of characters (from serious to stupid characters). We will also explore how to make the so-called “tricks” become “movements”, and we will work on the creativity around them.

We will explore possibilities of the body using and having the centre in different places in relation to the height of the floor and the different parts of the body, until we get comfortable to move in all the little corners of the body positions.

How to apply: send an email to arnhemsemeisjes@hotmail.com with your contact details (phone & address) and a short description of your movement experience. This workshop has a high level of physical work and is meant for people with a professional background in dance, circus or martial arts. Deadline for application is November 11th.
