Taking place over four sessions, the objective of this workshop is to raise students’ of art, and more particularly the artistry of contemporary dance.
Session 1: Reflection and debate on the place of art in daily life: what is its purpose, who can create, where and how (inspired by the philosophy of Frédéric Lenoir). This period of exchange will be followed by a short choreographic demonstration by the artist, illustrating what was discussed.
Session 2: A call to the imagination, the improbable, the poetic or the wacky and eccentric without any judgement of self or other using the body, the classroom environment (desks, pencils, etc.) as well as fellow students, to discover the human bodys’s multiple capacities for expression.
Session 3: Creation of a choreography: chose movements, memorise the choreographic sequence, and rehearse. Discipline, commitment, attention, listening, and collaboration are at the heart of achieving successful results of this session.
Session 4: Revision and rehearsal of the choreography created in the previous session, followed by a presentation to the other classes in the school via a direct Youtube link.
