Hamlet Zar workshop

It is not often that we resonate when something new and unusual is presented to us. However I have just been to the Hamlet Zar workshop at Pavilion dance in Bournemouth city in the deep South West of England, it’s good.
Guess when we look at the work of others, inevitably it leads us to look at our own. At the overlaps in practice. Hamlet Zar also seem to follow the paradigms of known into the unknown. Mining in these wellsprings are the only places where innovative creativity can be sourced in my opinion. Lots of exercise built into sequences standing sitting or lying stop step own movement gesture voice mirroring. Juxtapositions against ritual music end, picked up randomly by dancers and musicians who frequently change places.
Sequences in levels were initiated by Vahid, the director. He gave the disciplines permission to move into the next act. Something to learn from is his determination to follow a creative strand and be detached from its development and yet nourish the process with fertile circumstances then use residencies international contacts a book of choreographic poems and a film.

Heard myself being introduced “Michael Mitchell from DanceAware: meditation in motion teacher with interests in improvised movement and spontaneous process. Further explained, that is moving from form and structure into spontaneity. Michael has developed links with live music in performance improvised music with improvised dance. DanceAware is charting links between conscious and subconscious with very simple queues always using breath and balance as a start point.
DanceAware’s current performance works bring together moving image and voice scape soundtrack and digital analysis of motion.”
