SPRING -- 2012
Sunday Night
Beginning BASICS Lab
7 Sunday Nights, March 18 - April 29, 2012. 8pm-11pm.
Facilitated by ANTERO ALLI
This Beginning BASICS LAB introduces the
fundamental movement, ritual, meditation,
and vocal techinques innate to this paratheatre
medium in three areas of self-work:
SHADOW WORK
Rituals and movement forms that expose unconscious and often self-destructive attitudes, complexes, and beliefs towards their transformation into more creative expression and spontaneity. This process can be supported and accomplished with technique work.
TECHNIQUE WORK
The structural integrity of this ritual technology is maintained by a web of techniques that include: No-Form, Contact Point, Vocalizations, Polarizations, Verticality, The Warm-Up Cycles, Resonance, Containment, Immersion, Movement Vocabulary, Spatial Awareness, Jogging Forms. The purpose of technique is to bring more precision to the expression of source work.
SOURCE WORK
Nurtures a more direct experience of the currents of energy in the body itself and also, throughout the internal landscape. This process deepens the capacity for giving oneself totally to a given source, force, or state, towards a more embodied engagement and expression of presence, action, stillness, sound, and gesture.
NOTE: This is a non-performance lab.
The "pressure to perform" is released and replaced by the
self-created pressures of increasing internal commitment
to presence, expression, and action.
