MERIDIAN FLOW

Practical movement research by Zuny Kozáňková, the aim of which is to understand energy paths through movement and to find new movement and compositional possibilities.

 

Activating energy in a certain meridian path can be an impulse to discover new physical possibilities and physical connections, as well as new qualities for dancing. These unusual body connections generate new connections between the different parts of the body. Conscious work with meridians also has a great impact on health and therefore offers a healthier approach for professional artists to their body and their profession and can be an inspiration in both creative and lifestyle work.

 

Research will include:

 

– acquaintance with basic meridians and their localization, interconnection with organs and body structures (students receive maps of meridians)

 

– meridian chi-kung and work with meridians in new dance technique

 

– discovering new mobility options using the meridian tracks through improvisation and thus finding a new movement vocabulary

 

– Composing motion based on meridians

 

 

Dates:

 

26 – 30.11.2018 in Štúdio tanca dance theater
