Journeys 1

Noticing a place from which to begin...
Revisit this same starting place several times.
Each time note the journey in, through and of your body that this same starting point gives rise to.


Video 1:
A journey starting from the an awareness of balancing weight across the feet
(Recorded on a Flip camera which is held in my hand whilst improvising)

Beginnings 3: Journey

Two short improvisations that both start from a rise in the thumb! 


Starting from this pre-selected point in the body the task is to note the movement possibilities that emerge shaped by this starting point.

Capturing 'Beginnings' - this time in short 'time lapse' images

Beginnings 1

Stand, lay, sit in any position
Take time to find an inner 'stillness,
then draw your attention to the internal landscape of the body.....
noting, noting what draws you...
         A twitching in the belly, a tension in the fingers, a drop in the shoulder, a catch in balance....
