Ninia Grisito - THE SILK AS A MATTER, THE BODY AS A TOOL.

Starting from the desire to facilitate the expansion of awareness of the element and from the body, we will seek to understand its mechanisms and possibilities.

We will activate, from this base, a structuring of the acrobatic movement in the air and, from this place, we will focus on strengthening and understanding this physical and aerial awareness, advancing towards the generation of our own individual language.

This will be explored starting from the measurement of the body itself in space, emphasising projection, supports and the gaze, and using the support of the image of the Kinesphere as the place from which the movement is generated.

Understanding ourselves as a projection helps us to feel ourselves as amplifiers. The body is not without the space it occupies, constructs and radiates.

The exploration of our bubble allows us to investigate and discover the possibilities of movement of our body in space.

The practice is therefore based on the principles of the Kinesphere, and will be structured as follows:

Warm-up based on movement practices on the floor and with partners.

Practice of exercises on the floor aimed at raising awareness related to specific elements of the aerial sequences on the Silk.

Transmission and practice of sequences of movement on the mat.

Transmission and practice of exercises and guidelines aimed at research on the Silk.
