AUTOSTOP is an unconventional dance event created to work in close contact with Nature and oneself.

Where: Treviso (TV), Italy

When: July 29th – August 3rd, 2024

Deadline for applications: July 22nd, 2024

The main goal is to enhance both physical and expressive awareness and potential through a combination of athletic and introspective work. Energy will be focused initially on a series of muscle strengthening and agility exercises, followed by body listening exercises of a proprioceptive nature. This first phase prepares the students for structured and progressive improvisation work: focusing on body physics, gravity, and dynamics, will deepen the idea of improvisation conceived as a vehicle for self-communication. Improvisation does not mean “moving freely,” but it is the result of mastering communicative awareness and the dancer’s own tools to express themselves.
THE PRACTICES:
-Training in nature – muscle strengthening, proprioceptive exercises, agility, focus.
-Partnering technique.
-Contact improvisation.
-Jam Session.
-Contact.
-Guided meditation and visualization.
-Contemporary dance technique.
WHO IT IS FOR:
This program is designed for dancers, movers, professional performers, and advanced students.
Autostop is for you if:
– you are looking for a high-level learning experience that helps you deeply connect the moving body with the perception of yourself, nature, and others;
– you are stimulated by the idea of an unconventional experience that helps you recognize and overcome your limits;
– you wish to develop or enhance performance skills in site-specific contexts, both athletically and artistically.
