PERFORMANCE 20:00
1001 WAYS OF EXISTENCE Explores the intersection between performance and practice, alchemy and transformation, introspection and transmission.
The sessions begin with a series of breath exercises, foundations of over tone, throat singing, and yogic pranayama. We ground focus with stillness, and meditative marital arts philosophy. Then commence body conditioning, muscle strengthening, mobility, and motion. With a warm and active mind, and willing presence, the class nurtures room for improvisation using imagery and imaginative tools for expression. The final closing of each session is important to return to oneself after exploring the subconscious state. Ending with meditation and mindfulness, in combination with Alexander technique.
Each session is designed with particular focus. Using a combination of elements, you'll be guided through various qualities, sources of contrast and duality in the body. Through psychoanalytical ways of movement, Madeleine can create a safe space to explore extreme states of physical endurance and heightened creativity.
