Trial and Error \u2013 Improvisation as a Practice of Curiosity<\/strong><\/p>\n

How can we step out of habitual movement and enter a state of curious unknowing?
\nThis workshop, led by Ildik\u00f3 T\u00f3th, opens a space for dancers and movers\u2014both experienced and emerging\u2014to explore improvisation as a field of inquiry, risk, and discovery.
\nDrawing on the Forsythe Improvisation Technologies and the choreographic research during the residency at Akropoditi, together we will investigate how restriction, delay, or fragmentation can open new pathways of movement and perception.
\nParticipants 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.
\nImprovisation here becomes a strategy of unlearning. Rather than seeking control, we engage in a process that values uncertainty, attentiveness, and presence\u2014the creative potential of not knowing what comes next.
\nThe 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.<\/p>\n

Ages:<\/strong> 16+<\/p>\n

Level:<\/strong> Dancers as well as participants with prior movement experience<\/p>\n
