Level: Dancers / Actors / Musicians / Performers
Ensemble Thinking (ET) is a method for operating in the complex environment of improvised performance. ET develops improvisational and perceptual choreographic skills that guide dance artists in ways that help to cultivate group awareness and to co-operatively compose in-the-moment through developing, recognizing, and responding to choreographic forms as they dynamically emerge in performance. In this workshop, we will start with examining the possibilities within the solo body, using precise scores to challenge our movement habits. These concepts will tune our awareness of our solo bodies, freeing our perceptions of how the solo operates in relation to the group. The principles of ET help the dancer focus on different elements of the moment: facing, level, movement, number, stillness, timing, space, focus, line, shape, etc. Heightened awareness of the relationship between the solo and the ensemble allows for greater facility and nuance in these elements as tools of creation and lenses of perception. This workshop is for dancers, actors, musicians, and CI dancers who are interested in increasing their kinetic awareness of the ensemble and solo in performance.
