fuse-it
fuse it-workshop! gather all you've got! it’s what you already have, and what hides inside of you, that we push to the surface. we take all possible influences from around and inside of us, isolate them, sharpen them, and put them together, in order to create a versatile, musical, humorous, and hot piece of dance. the emphasis is on your individual taste and working together as a community through positivity and hard work. we aim to grow together, not next to each other. we create an environment of trust, in order to be able to improve in what we do. we push, we don't stress! we work, we don't suffer! we enjoy, not just survive! we dance. we play games to warm up, we use theatrical tasks to let our personal borders fade, we create unique movement material, we dance phrases, and work on different levels of improvisation. i will show you ways to discover, accept, develop, and dance your taste to its fullest. we practise this fusion, isolated and together, by constantly performing. i'm looking forward to burning up that floor with you!
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!
