Sensing to Action: embodied approaches to movement in the classroom
Sensing to Action offers practical and theoretical insight into creative movement and holistic approaches to dance and theatre practices in the classroom. Drawing from Body Mind Centering, Experiential Anatomy and Embodied Movement the workshop gently leads participants on their own journey of body, space awareness and movement exploration.
Practical explorations are interspersed with individual and group reflective sessions exploring the experiences in the workshop and reflecting on classroom practicalities and experiences. Both sessions will finish with group work exploring structures for developing movement towards scores and material for performance. The second session will also include a trouble shooting exercise about practicalities and challenges particular to the classroom.
