WEEKLY TRAINING SESSIONS
WITH MARCOS ARRIOLA & LUCIA GARCIA PULLÉS

[contemporary dance / improvisation]

On Mondays, May 12, 19, and 26, 2025
At Laboratoires d'Aubervilliers
Free workshops, registration required

The Training Sessions — Participants will explore various ways to express their personal stories through dance. The sessions will foster a shared space for imagining future dances that blend past experiences, feelings, and desires. Guided by these reflections, individuals will engage in practices both collectively and alone to tune into their bodies and their voices, focusing on mutual sharing and collaboration. The goal is to perceive the body as a resonant space that transforms through interaction. Together, attendees will build a temporary community rooted in contagion, inspiration, imitation, and transmission. By deconstructing their movement as a sensitive practice, they will collectively invent new, overflowing, and chaotic possibilities.
