Our bodies are social entities, and as such are conditioned by movement norms, whether conscious or not. These norms influence the way we inhabit our bodies and spaces. The aim of this workshop is to reintroduce the notion of play and joy into our daily movement practices. During this workshop, we will examine and enhance the most habitual movements of our bodies. Over a period of an hour and a half, we invite participants to explore walking, bodily interactions in everyday situations, and ways of occupying space with an unusual eye. By crossing our respective disciplines, notably dance and theater, we will propose walking exercises that play with speed, directions, attention and imagination, with the aim of developing a new perception of the places of our daily lives.
