Dance improv in Viewpoints workshop for dancers on Medieval music

Mazatlán  • 

This is an example of our work on the specific relationship between music and dance within the 5-day Viewpoints workshop I gave at the Escuela Profesional de Danza de Mazatlán, an institution directed by the Delfos dance company. Viewpoints is a technique that deconstructs presence on stage into parameters of space and time. For a more informative video, click here: https://youtu.be/MHe3LNurTVU I've been working with musicians, actors and dancers for my own training in all three fields, and after intensive training with SITI New York - the great artists of Viewpoints - I realized that it was the ideal technique to rehearse multidisciplinary pieces. I have taught Viewpoints in various places in the US and Mexico, where I noticed how different the needs of dancers are from those of actors or musicians. Being a musician who is also trained in classical and contemporary dance, I adapt the methodology specifically to dancers and choreographers, and then extend to the specific relationship between music and dance. The actors are the ones who usually work with Viewpoints, and because of their different approach to dancers, some things are much more natural, while in other aspects they do not adapt as quickly as dancers. Musicians usually have less experience in listening to their body in the space. With them, more work is necessary on the awareness of the body before beginning to improvise as a group within the space.
