Bound Flow

This class involves examples of Company 605’s movement vocabulary and improvisational prompts from current repertoire. Combining techniques and styles found inside of 605’s working language, exercises are aimed toward building strength and speed, developing bound flow patterning, and finding groove. Tasks are given to acknowledge the weight of the body, both resting and moving through space, to rediscover instinctual movement pathways, and to practice capturing and utilizing the natural momentum of body weight to develop connective flow through raw and powerful execution. Participants will be exploring relationship with the floor, articulation and isolation of body parts at various levels, with the class offering multiple techniques and approaches around warping interpretation of time and space within the body to build towards unexpected patterning, and inhabiting various physical states.
