SUMMARY:Butoh
DESCRIPTION:Butoh is an avant-garde movement form first performed by Japane
 se artists Tatsumi Hijikata and Kazuo Ohno in 1959. Originally conceived a
 s an iconoclastic rejection of contemporary western dance technique\, buto
 h aims to strip away socially acceptable movements and gestures\, and enco
 urages students to find and embrace hidden movements that lie buried benea
 th years of conditioned behavior. In this Moving Target class we will inco
 rporate fragile and vulnerable contexts of the body to explore the “mate
 riality of being.” The class will begin with a somatics-based warm-up\, 
 partnering work to explore skeletal\, muscular\, and fascial layers of mov
 ement and energy exchange\, and vigorous floor work. Finally\, we will uti
 lize butoh-fu\, a method of choreography using image-based poetry as groun
 ds for movement generation in brief witnessed improvisations. Dancers at a
 ll movement levels are welcome to participate.\n\nEmail: egodena@gmail.co
