Improv (103) Deep Dives: Movement & Music

Discover the depths of movement and music in your improv...

2 x 1-day workshops that can be taken separately or together as an intensive diving into the world of physical and whimiscal improv.

In improvisation, chaos is not an enemy: it is the spark that ignites unexpected stories. In this workshop, we will learn to embrace it, play with it, and transform it into unique narratives, using two tools: movement and music.

About:
Day 1: Movement
MOVING WITH CHAOS
We will explore how chaos—that fertile disorder—becomes the best ally of creation. Through the body and movement dynamics, we will discover:
- Flexible narrative structures: how to organize the unpredictable?
- Organic stories born from gesture, rhythm, and physical action.

Day 2: Music
THE BEAUTIFUL CREATIVE IMPULSE
Music is chaos transformed into harmony. In this session:
- We will improvise with sounds and emotions to bring characters and conflicts to life.
- We will learn to listen to our impulses and internal rhythm to see the stories.
By the end, you'll have discovered that chaos isn't something to fear, but rather the place where the magic of improvisation is born.
