Body Weather Workshop. For two decades Hisako contributed to the development of the Body Weather Laboratory. A kinesthetic and movement research initiated by dancer/farmer Min Tanaka. This comprehensive movement training offers open and incisive investigations to challenge physical limits and scale, evoke sense memory, and rigorously re-examine the body as a dynamic, transformative environment.
Through relaxation and awakening of various parts of the body, students will focus on opening their bodies to receive from the outside world and cultivating their senses of the new discoveries that their bodies have absorbed.

INTENSIVE SESSION
DATES: September 12th – 16th & 18th – 22nd
TIMES: Weekday 10am – 2pm, Sunday 10:30am – 2:30pm

This workshop will explore the following themes: Body without strength. Body that still have some parts alive. Body that is moved. Body that lives in a space.

“Release your body and accept the outside world, then the body itself will begin to move. I like to find a huge dynamism inside a small thing”
-Hisako Horikawa
