  Within Stillness: Action Theater™ Improvisation Workshop

  10:30am - 4pm

  Western Sky Studio, Berkeley, California

  

  In this workshop taught by Shinichi Iova-Koga, we cultivate a grain of stillness within our minds as the improvisation gallops around in capricious directions. That stillness is a tiny weight holding the action in a state of tension, tethered, yet ready to be liberated.

  We start softly tuning up the body, using Noguchi Taiso (Water Body Training) and Martial Arts practice as the foundation. Then we enter into the improvisation, the composition, the rapport between bodies, time and space.
