“When I dance, I try to become one with the light, but I also know that the shadow is always with me.”
Kazuo Ohno ((Butoh dancer who continued performing into his 100s)
Following last year’s popular weekend workshop at Dancehouse, Yumi Umiumare returns to guide participants in discovering their own ‘creative gateway’ through the physical and philosophical approach of Butoh.
Over the weekend, Yumi will guide participants through 10 focused points and introduce historical, classical, holistic, and contemporary approaches to Butoh, while also sharing insights from her diverse practice.
This workshop is suited for those wanting to reflect on an existing piece, create new movement phrases, or simply dive into the ocean of Butoh.
The workshop welcomes both experienced practitioners and those new to the form.
