improvisation development and creation
The improvisation development and creation workshop for dancers focuses on learning tools, strategies, and concepts for improvisation and integrating them into a creative process. As dancers, we are often called upon to improvise or create movement material. In this workshop, we will explore how to generate ideas through improvisation, shape them into structured phrases, and refine them through editing, bridging the gap between exploration and creation.
the description reflects an artist’s idea which was developed at the time it was submitted to b12. it may have changed by the time the workshop or the performance project is starting. please stay flexible. thank you!

Guy Shomroni began his professional career in 2000 as a dancer in the production Beasts at the Suzan Dellal Dance Centre. In 2001 he joined the Batsheva Ensemble, and the Batsheva Dance Company in 2004.
