Community Butoh Class
This class is a Butoh based inquiry. We will engage, invite, explore, inquire and utilize energetic, imagistic practices. Together we will follow and listen to our weight and allow ourselves to "be moved" into embodied unknowns. This class provides an opportunity to channel and hone your attention, slow down, notice and listen deeply to your inner experience: sensations, impulses and unexplainable complexes to dance your "humaness." What could it mean to dance a breath of yourself, the air of your being. We will find this together,
April 14th class is CANCELLED but we will announce future offerings soon

humXn forms
The concert humXn forms explores the life of sensations that reside underneath human appearance. Drawing on butoh, contemporary dance, and somatic practices, ignited by sonic textures and language, the 2 works on the program mine the periphery of our perceptions, asking questions that bring findings into relationship to create the performance environment. The solo Just… follows a journey of bodily discovery and emotional expression through the rhythms of sung text, silence, and touch. The trio humXn forms (dance w/live percussion) queries somatic connectivity, human-technology interaction, and ways of transforming ourselves to be with others and adapt to continually changing conditions.
コンサート「humXn forms」は、人間の外見の下に存在する感覚の生命を探求するものです。このプログラムの2つの作品は、舞踏、コンテンポラリーダンス、ソマティックの実践を取り入れ、音の感覚と言語によって私たちの知覚の周辺を探り、発見を関係づけてパフォーマンス環境を創造する問いを投げかけています。
ソロの「Just...」は、歌われた歌詞、沈黙、タッチのリズムを通して、身体的発見と感情表現の旅をたどっています。トリオで行われるhumXn forms(ダンスとパーカッションの生演奏)は、身体的なつながり、人間とテクノロジーの相互作用、他者と共にありながら絶えず変化する状況に適応するために、どのように自分自身を変容させていけば良いのか、ということを問いかけています。※ソマティック: ボディワーク、ムーブメント、心理療法にまたがり、ソマ(ギリシャ語で身体・肉体)の動きに焦点を当てること
