Ermira Goro @ermiragoro – Ildikó Tóth 22/10/2 Ermira Goro @ermiragoro – Ildikó Tóth 22/10/25 – 13/11/25 Performing arts Title of the project: "Akómi" Greece/Germany Artists in Residency @akropoditi_dancecentre Masterclass Saturday November 1st 2025, 17:00 – 19:00 Free submission Trial and Error – Improvisation as a Practice of Curiosity How can we step out of habitual movement and enter a state of curious unknowing? This workshop, led by Ildikó Tóth and Ermira Goro, opens a space for dancers and movers—both experienced and emerging—to explore improvisation as a field of inquiry, risk, and discovery. Drawing on the Forsythe Improvisation Technologies and our ongoing choreographic research, including aspects from Akómi, we will investigate how restriction, delay, or fragmentation can open new pathways of movement and perception. Together, we will work with improvisation scores that challenge expectations and invite playfulness: interruptions in flow, shifts in spatial orientation, altered timing, or responses to minimal stimuli. Tasks may include isolating body parts, following impulse rather than form, or allowing stillness to become active. Rather than seeking control, we engage in a process that values uncertainty, attentiveness, and presence—the creative potential of not knowing what comes next. Combining Ildikó’s background in Forsythe-based improvisation and Ermira’s experience in weaving narrative and abstraction through movement, the workshop emphasizes physical intelligence, perception, and curiosity. It invites professional dancers and experienced movers to deepen their improvisational tools and rediscover movement as a way of thinking through the body. Ages: 16+ Level: Dancers as well as participants with prior movement experience Apply: until Friday 31 October Monday-Friday 17:00-21:00, phone num.: +30 22810-80690 #akropoditi #akropoditidancecentre #dancestudio #artisticresidency #artistinresidence #resartis #studio #performingarts #performing #arts #dance #project #workshop #open #presentation #expression #creation #creativity #movement #improvisation #technique #composition
Ermira Goro @ermiragoro – Ildikó Tóth 22/10/2 Ermira Goro @ermiragoro – Ildikó Tóth 22/10/25 – 13/11/25 Performing arts Title of the project: "Akómi" Greece/Germany Artists in Residency @akropoditi_dancecentre Description of project: Akómi is the first collaborative research project by choreographers Ermira Goro (Athens) and Ildikó Tóth (Leipzig). The work explores how individual perception and emotional experience are shaped—and often silenced—by dominant collective narratives. Drawing inspiration from Christa Wolf’s Kassandra, a fragmented monologue on isolation, suppressed truth, and the burden of knowing, the artists investigate how these psychological and social tensions are embodied, transformed, and shared. A second point of reference are the Spedos figurines of Cycladic culture, whose folded arms and featureless faces symbolize self-protection and withdrawal. These archetypal postures inspire a minimalist movement language rooted in stillness, pressure, and latent resistance. They are reimagined through improvisational frameworks to explore how bodies absorb internalized pressure and unspoken knowledge. During their residency at Akropoditi Dance and Performing Arts Centre, the artists will work on developing Akómi’s choreographic and spatial framework. The research process will culminate in a public showing that offers audiences insight into the evolving dialogue between movement and perception. Akómi becomes a choreographic inquiry into fragmentation and resilience – asking how the body holds, absorbs, and reimagines collective narratives and what forms emerge through the fragile negotiation between individual perception and collective meaning. #akropoditi #akropoditidancecentre #dancestudio #artisticresidency #artistinresidence #resartis #studio #performingarts #performing #arts #dance #project #workshop #open #presentation #expression #creation #creativity #movement #improvisation #technique #composition
