البرنامج: 

Body Territory:  The body is a territory of encounter, dialogue, discovery and relationship. 
We are territories to inhabit, we inhabit the other and together we form a platform, a mirror and a sustenance. During this practice, the members of the workshop will experience some of the body research that Claudia has developed over the last 25 years as part of her artistic and pedagogical vision. 
Various dynamics will be explored in relation to the concept of "Practicing Body" and "Expressive Body". Working from the flow and control of energy in floor work, through the use of principles such as: accumulation, expansion, sense of trajectory, multi-directional use of space, circularity and sense of community. 
During the session a series of Japanese Haikus are used as a creative impulse of various improvisations; as well as exercises of free stroke on paper, related to the expression of the body through various means, in this case poetry and drawing. 
The main focus is on the development of a present and integrated body configuration that invites a deep understanding of both the individual and social body, strengthening the use of intuition, perception and connection.
This work is inspired in part by the Floor Work system developed by Cortocinésis dance company and the dance maker Vladimir Rodríguez from Colombia.
