Copenhagen: Pre-Expressivity & Scenic Presence
@København (DK) / November-December 2012

Pre-Expressivity and Scenic Prescence is an advanced training course for performers to develop the most fundamental physical and vocal techniques of the performer. The point of departure in this workshop is the notion of pre-expressivity developed by Eugenio Barba at ISTA (International School of Theater Anthropology). Pre-expressivity is the central point of Theatre Anthropology that studies the scenic behavior of the performer in an organized performance situation. It scrutinizes the recurring principles of performer’s extra-daily techniques, which are common in all genres and styles.

The daily practical work at Pre-Expressivity and Scenic Presence workshop consists of:
•    Learning vocal and physical exercises
•    Creating materials and sequences of action
•    Making montage
•    Improvisation

This workshop is a collaboration between Goossun Art-illery (DK/UK), SJÁLFSTÆÐU LEIKHÚSIN (Association of Independent Theatre in Iceland) and Dansbyrån and is part of a nordic series of advanced workshops for performers.

Den 14-18 november ger Kultur Kraft Väst en spetsworkshop för dansare i Klein Technique™ med grundaren Susan Klein själv i Dansbyrån Studio!

"The course will be a 20-hour intensive workshop where focus lies on a pivotal concept of Klein Technique™, moving from the deepest structural and energetic tissue of the body, the bone. We will explore the  functional anatomy of the muscles of deep structural support. (..) We will intellectually explain and physically work with these muscles in order to consciously learn to use these muscles to bring the bones into alignment and, in turn, bring the body into a place of connectedness.  This work leads to true power, strength and efficiency in movement.

In Klein Technique™ we look at the body as part of the living system of life and part of a systems approach to movement.  We believe that the body exists within our gravitational system of the floor and the space.  We do not exist in isolation, nor do we dance in isolation.  We exist and dance with the ground, the space, and each other. To do so, with efficiency, we need to be connected."
