Choreographien der Präsenz - Praktiken der Aufmerksamkeit und innere Landschaften in Bewegung

This workshop shares tools and themes that run through my work as a choreographer and performer, inviting participants to explore movement as a choreography of presence — a way of training attention, sensing inner landscapes, and expanding expressive range. Each session begins with physical warm-up, followed by practices that deepen perceptual clarity and widen movement possibilities.

Through guided improvisation, compositional tasks and creative research, participants will investigate dynamics, physical states and responses to diverse stimuli such as words, images and sound, cultivating attentive bodies in motion. Repetition and duration will be used as tools to deepen awareness and to observe how movement transforms over time, while reflecting on how that experience communicates to others.

We will develop personal and collective choreographic languages, exploring bodies in situation and theatrical pretexts that enhance communicability while embracing abstraction. The work unfolds individually and collaboratively, in an open environment where each contribution matters and where inner landscapes become visible through movement.

He directed 23 group pieces and 20 solos for the stage and unconventional spaces, as well as 13 works as co-author, apart from creations within teaching contexts, in dance and theatre. He works extensively as a performer, both in his own creations and in others by diverse choreographers and theatre directors.
