The first Wild Moonwalk Lab workshop. Ariège- Catalan Pyrenees. August 20-28th, 2018.
Premier stage Moonwalk en itinérance sauvage. Ariège- Pyrenées catalans. 20-28 Aôut 2018
!!!!!Next workshops: summer 2019 (soon updating)
Dance workshop and hiking in wild nature. This workshop is inspired by the collective adventure Moonwalk (itinerant artistic laboratory in nature during one moon cycle) and proposes a unique experience of one-week dancing, walking and living in wild nature.
By calling in wild forces and ancient memories in our bodies we explore the meeting of body and landscape, how nature influences the group work, how to create together a dialogue with the environment and how to find an organic creative process.
We propose different exercises, explorations, we create our own rituals and we improvise in the magnificent Pyrenees mountains in south France.
We bring everything that we need for the time with us. We pack in our food and share such collective tasks as food preparation, clean-up and camp set-up. We practice low impact camping, paying attention to our physical relationship to the world around us.
