MOVEMENT STYLISATION CLASS – 18th June 2014

This class aims to introduce stylisation through an approach that focuses on establishing some foundations for creating original movement that is clear, precise, and full of meaning. By experimenting with a few of the principles of the dramatic corporeal mime technique, this session will lead to some exploration of daily actions in order to create a physical understanding about what stylisation means. This practical approach intends to stimulate the development of a small vocabulary that can be used in varied art forms. The class is aimed to performing artists in general (age 18+). Participants should bring / wear clothes suitable for movement training.
