Flying Low & Passing Through Workshop with Leila McMillan

  • Mon 09 September -
  • Thu 12 September 2019
Centre 151

Together we will spiral in and out of the earth, pass through expansion and cohesion, run, slide, learn how to challenge gravity, how to fall and how to rise. We will work with efficient pathways to move with speed, methods of how to activate the body to the fullest, while commanding our body with our voice. Unlimited possibilities in curve will enable us to pass through the space and transform the environment of dance. We will instantly compose together working with solo and group scores. We will be soft, wild, spicy and powerfully spontaneous. The workshop will be a combination of principles from Flying Low & Passing Through originally created by David Zambrano and Leila’s further development, which support her current choreographic practice.

EXPANDING PHYSICALITIES INTENSIVE with CHISATO OHNO

  • Thu 06 September -
  • Fri 07 September 2018
Centre 151

Van Huynh Company invites Chisato Ohno to deliver a two day Dance Intensive at Centre 151.

The workshop is based on a research designed to access an expanding range of physicality through the imagery of sensation. Starting with a Gaga class each day, dancers will move on to tasks encouraging instinctive movement, emphasising quality and texture. The very physical approach will be used to warm up the mind and body, putting priority into connecting to each individual’s unique movement style, encouraging the participants to break out from regular habits and inspiring the body into new movement.
