Body's Frontier
by Yuko Kaseki
“ORIGIN OF YOU IS FULL OF MIRACLES”
This specialised intensive will be facilitated by internationally acclaimed Japanese German Butoh practitioner Yuko Kaseki.
Through her renown articulation and meticulous physical details, Yuko introduces various Eastern methods and Butoh through digging and cultivating the body as a frontier to find untapped fields of emotions, memories and sensations.
Yuko guides the participants to research each body part in detail in order to reconnect, encourage them to observe habits of movement in social functions and challenge them to go beyond their comfort zones. The workshop has an emphasis on developing original movement through body awareness, sensitivity and discovery of hidden dynamic energy.
Through various unique practices, including Noguchi gymnastics, elements of Tai-Chi Dao-yin and Butoh methodology, participants will awaken deeper layers of sensitivity, connecting to their energy source and listening honestly to the variants of the inner with the outer. The workshop offers the possibility to seek and experience solo, duo and group improvisations with elements of imagery, element, space, and relationship. Through intensity and reduction, participants are able to dive deeply into stillness/movement and translate it into individual manifestations, finding one’s own unique body, physical reality and exposure of existence.
Yuko is visiting Melbourne for a short period before her tour to Japan - do not miss this ‘Golden opportunity!’
