Jos Baker “On Movement and Stillness” One week improvisation workshop at Tictac Art Centre in Brussels.

Where: Tictac Art Centre, Brussels, Belgium

When: April 28 – May 2  from 14:30 – 18:30

The title is a lie, we cannot find stillness, though as we approach it different movement become more significant, the heartbeat, the digestion, the breath, the little movements that keep our balance. The warm up, is not just moving our bodies but preparing ourselves. The act of taking ourselves from where we are, to where we need to be. So often we engage in the thing we want to achieve without bringing ourselves and our desires there. Paying close attention to our physical desires can be a powerful tool for movement creation, for developing new approaches and ways of moving.

This workshop will be largely improvisation based, using different approaches to finding detail and precision in movement and our approach to it. Looking at how certain movement can be highlighted and focused on by placing it in relationship to stillness. Using elements of dance, theatre and meditation, we will look at how different mindsets and approaches can change our movement patterns, as well as how our movement patterns effect our thinking. For the creative process, for performance, for life.
