This year, the CCNR organizes a new Summer Camp at La Velette dance studio in Rillieux-la-Pape. This summery parenthesis will give professional dancers the opportunity to experience the Practice method, foundation of Yuval Pick’s pedagogy, and to join the universe of his creation Pazaz.
Led by Madoka Kobayashi, this summer camp is an invitation to experience joy and spontaneous connections; a real-time experience of organic explorations, both intimate and collective. The camp has three objectives:
During this week-long camp, dancers will be invited to enter the world of Pazaz: a piece that champions the importance of dance in the public space, in dancers’ bodies and in spectators’ hearts. FoulePazaz is the Practice method in performance.
At the end of the camp, participants will be invited to perform an extended version of Pazaz as a group on the CCNR forecourt.
Practice is the method Yuval Pick has been developing for several years. It nourishes his dance and is the daily training method of his company’s dancers. Practice offers dancers tools to connect with their bodies and to encounter those of others in a different way, through our creativity and imagination.
With Practice, every movement is considered as an action, materialized by a precise intention. Each intentioned action is a manifestation of the self. This fundamental principle opposes the idea that movement must produce an aesthetic form.
