講義計画

　The subject of my course will be focussed on the following points:
- The concept of circulation of energy in body movements and practice.
- The concept of beauty and accuracy in relation with form, space, motion and timing in the matter of dance and performing art and practice.
- From Modern dance to Dancetheatre, from abstract language to “suggestive“ expression.
- Dancetheatre, a non rational suggestion to dream and reflexion; discover of a non-verbal language following open and flexible syntax rules.
- Choreographic composition in moderndance and in Dancetheatre, and practice.
- about the ability to adapt yourself to the non expected (improvisation and spontaneous composition) and practice. The artist creator, as well as the scientist searcher needs to keep an open mind to be able to compose with the unexpected; keep curiosity alive.
