WIG IV - ONLINE Workshop - 26th July 11.00 - 12.30
Softness in our joints, ease in our steps and a clear sense of meeting ourselves as we are. In this Zoom based workshop, Penny will share some of her practice revolving around finding space and a grounded connection to support our movement choices in improvisation. In an increasing screen based world, we can often spend days imagining we are somewhere else - a tropical island, or in someone else’s house - and this time will be an opportunity to come back to where we actually are, and open up senses other than the visual to really be here.
Options to participate will include working with your
camera on or off (or facing the ceiling!!) as the majority of
the workshop will be led with verbal invitations. There will
be time given towards the end for discussion in small
groups.
This work is underpinned by Penny’s current studies on the MEd
at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland where she is currently
researching proprioception and its ability to support social
interactions. And perhaps one day again, how a greater sense
of proprioception could support choice making in touch-based
interactions - like contact improvisation.
