PROGRAMME DETAILS<\/h5>

Spanning seven weeks, <\/span><\/span>Wild Moves<\/span><\/span> requires<\/span> no prior experience in dance, movement, or theatre \u2013 only a genuine interest in choreography, physical theatre, or performance. This course is recommended for individuals aged 18 and above.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

Tran<\/span>s<\/span>formative Tools: Ritual, Practice and Creative Flow<\/span><\/em> (2<\/span>7 October<\/span> to <\/span>8 December<\/span> 2025)<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h6>

In this programme, led by Edith Podesta, participants will take inspiration from influential makers and their methods to establish their own rituals and practices whilst constantly nurturing creativity in their movement work.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Renowned choreographers in our syllabus include <\/span>Deborah Hay<\/span>, whose work treats all dance as sacred \u2013 a fusion of body and consciousness through spontaneous, invented rituals that cultivate attention, presence, and transformation; <\/span>Anna Halprin<\/span>, known for participatory works like <\/span>The Planetary Dance<\/span><\/i>, which unite healing, social action, and personal myth through communal ritual; <\/span>Gabrielle Roth<\/span>, who developed <\/span>The Five Rhythms<\/span><\/i>, a movement meditation that takes practitioners on a journey through Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical and Stillness; and <\/span>Maija Hirvanen<\/span>, who proposes performance magic through ritual-like \u201crecipes and spills\u201d that conjure presence and rich sensory worlds. The programme will also explore the <\/span>Eight Classic Centers of Motivation<\/span>, a framework of archetypes and mythic energies \u2013 from survival instincts to spiritual transcendence \u2013 that constitute a toolkit for transformation in performance. There will also be a special session with guest lecturer <\/span>Zarina Muhammad<\/span>, who introduces <\/span>Antidotes for Surviving Eclipses: Myth, Magic and Ritual as Resistance<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>

Guest Lecture Bio:<\/span><\/h6>

Zarina Muhammad <\/span><\/span>is an artist, <\/span>educator<\/span> and researcher whose practice is deeply entwined with a critical re-examination of oral histories, ethnographic <\/span>literature<\/span> and other historiographic accounts about Southeast Asia. Working at the intersections of installation, moving image, sound, text, participatory practice and performance, Zarina\u2019s practice has been interested in the broader contexts of eco-cultural landscapes, myth-making, haunted historiographies and<\/span> the<\/span> role of the artist as<\/span> a<\/span> \u201ccultural ventriloquist\u201d who lends polyphonic voices to data-driven systems, multi<\/span>–<\/span>species entanglements and shapeshifting worlds. She is currently developing <\/span><\/span>Breathing in a World of Water \/\/ Calling the Earth to Witness<\/span><\/span>, a long-term, collaborative, transnational audio-visual-performance research project that explores how water, earth, land, and soil shape histories, cultures, and economies, with particular attention <\/span>paid <\/span>to Southeast Asian narratives and situated ecologies. <\/span>The recipient of the 2022 IMPART Art Prize, Zarina<\/span> has presented her art installations, <\/span>performances and moving<\/span>–<\/span>image work widely at international biennales <\/span>like<\/span> FotoFest<\/span> Biennial 2024: Critical Geography (USA), <\/span>Diriyah<\/span> Contemporary Art Biennale<\/span> 2024<\/span> (Saudi Arabia), Singapore Biennale<\/span> 2024<\/span>, Lahore Biennale <\/span>2024 <\/span>(Pakistan),<\/span> as well as institutions such as <\/span>Kaoh<\/span>s<\/span>iung Museum of Fine Arts (Taiwan), MAIIAM Contemporary Art Museum (Thailand), Tin Sheds Gallery (Australia) and a solo presentation at the Singapore Pavilion of the 15th Gwangju Biennale (South Korea). She is presently part of the travelling exhibition <\/span><\/span>Actions for the Earth: Art, Care<\/span>,<\/span> and Ecology<\/span><\/span>,<\/span><\/span> curated by Sharmila Wood and produced by Independent Curators International (ICI), New York.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
