skillful improvisation helps you to see and feel how to move within boundaries, even if the boundaries in the moment shift and change.  

Frame it from the point of view of the audience.

Articulate it from the point of view of the perfomer.

Improvisation is  “the sped-up, imaginative, expressive negotiation with constraint”  It has boundaries, narrow, broad, or vague defined, .

and these boundaries are navigate or stetched.

Things not to be put in words.

And still write and talk about it

The space around us

What about Improvisation?

In the activist context of 'movement', 

It always includes three aspects: the political movement itself; the real physical, choreographic movement; and an associated personal movement and connection to shared values.

 

These three dimensions of physical practice, are present in gatherings such as demonstrations or other acts of resistance in public space.

The collected bodies are present and vulnerable in these acts of resistance in public space.The political takes place on and in the 'being in-between' of the bodies.

 

How to examine choreographic formats that appear in specific protest contexts: what insights can be discovered regarding the generation of political dimensions? How can the role of the body and its 'Response/Ability' be defined within the context of political ethics? What exercise practices would meet its needs?

The invisible connections

                                   

Bodies play.  Bodies play with space, time and dynamics. Bodies play and create a playground with a set of ruels.

While playing  a new reality apperars of what is really important at this time, for this people in this situation. 

It is uncovering what lays underneath, something only can be seen by the movements of the interacting bodies

                         

What do you want to make visible with choreography

The space between us

Improvisation is a "living, urgent, playful, intelligent, spontaneous interactions with constraint.

Improvisation applies to many types of movement—walking, speaking, acting, .

It applies to anyone who “moves” through society and interacts with other people and institutions, encountering historical constraints of race, gender, sexuality, class, ability, etc.
