EDUCATION

FLUIDIFY is a practice that seeks to challenge the body, the mind and soul. It provides tools that allow each individual to reveal a fluid, infinite movement rooted in their body, story, and capacities. 

The goal is not merely to reproduce an aesthetic but to enable each participant to transcend their own limits through the exploration of sensations. By delving into various techniques, FLUIDIFY invites participants to expand their physical, emotional, and imaginative horizons. This practice is enriched by circular, figure-eight, spiral, spherical movements, and spatial patterns, and unites diverse influences spanning aesthetic, axiological, poetic, and political domains.

 

The approach is rooted in a singular quest: to weave an unprecedented gestural language born from all dances and form of movement, whether they are from traditional, contemporary, street dances (krump, house, breaking), from sports or martial arts. 

 

FLUIDIFY is based around the idea of proposing an alternative to the modern and euro-centred dance technique, not because it is not valuable as an information, but as a way to open their body and mind to multiple practices. By making the participants understand the fundamental aspects of movement through biomechanics and circular motions, they will be able to recognize shared patterns within different dances.

​

The participants are guided to connect deeper into the present state or the "Flow State" as described by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, to experience intense concentration and embrace the joy in letting go of control.

Through fluid motion, the participants would understand how to manage softness and tension so both qualities work together to be able to develop a better agility, and sustain longer, like animals, by recycling energy, breath, mental concentration through momentum and organic movements.

 

Therefore, an environment prone to research, discoveries, playfulness, openness, softness, carefulness and trust is facilitated.

Fluidifying and connecting the spine, center and limbs, jumping from an idea, a movement, a concept to another without interruption, without judgement, getting robust and free. Connecting the physical (the Earth), the emotional (the Water), the mind (the Air) and the spiritual (the Fire).

 

FLUIDIFY embraces the idea of a protopia—an evolving ideal—a collective resistance against the erosion of existence and finding the connections that bind us. At the end, dance is to be considered not as something very serious, as a game, to find peace and solace specially during our times where everything seems to crumble and collapse. 

Nothing belongs to us, everything will return in the Waves.
