Fool's Cap proposes different workshops and labs for the purpose of research and creation.

For professionals and amateurs, do not hesitate to check out our activities here below.

 PARTNERING: connection, fall, impact

     
     Relationships, contact zones which connect us. Paradoxical places which are both, turbulent and reassuring. Spaces which highlight the dialogue and its absence. Places of passage, transition, transformation and transmission. Epidermis which reveal what exists in the space “in-between”.

      This workshop is based on technical and choreographic know-how Partnering. Two bodies which enter into dialogue through dance, through weight sharing, through the articulation of gestures, through flying!
PARTNERING: fondamentals on carrying and lifting

       We open a space for the practice of carrying and supporting, studying some of their fondamental technical elements. We will go through the notions of momentum, weight transfer, fall, touch, kinesphere and lifting. These are essential elements to allow the reception of the weight of the other's body and to manage the physical contact between bodies before and during the dance.
MOVEMENT AS THE STARTING POINT
​
     This workshop explores the frontiers between dance and theatre. Through the combination of gesture and intention, improvisation and choreographic work, theatrical situation and physical sensation, we seek to construct meaning from movement, avoiding to approach it through an intellectual analysis.

       The proposal starts from a chosen technical element: rhythm, causality, gesture, weight transfer, contact or listening. Participants are invited to experience moments of improvisation and instant composition individually, in duos and in groups. Then, we identify the situations that emerged during the improvisations in order to clarify and organize them in space and time. The session ends with a representation-performance of the work.
