Dear ones,
I am happy to let you know that I (Zalina) am co-guiding a 6-Week Butoh retreat at Beyond Community near Auroville along with my friend, Adam.
Adam has toured the world performing, teaching and writing about butoh since 2013. Before butoh Adam graduated from a two year Ballet and Modern Dance curriculum at Hillsborough Community College (2010-2012) and one year of Dance Studies at the University of South Florida (2012-2013). He has inspired many to explore butoh through his YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@shadowbody where he posts performance videos and tutorials. He also has compiled an excellent butoh manual https://butohmanual.com/ . His current research is in the intersectionality of butoh and mysticism which he calls ‘Theokinesis’.
With my background in butoh, dance movement therapy and somatics, we hope to bring you a rich exploration.
This workshop is open for all, ages 16 and above, regardless of dance/movement experience, mental or physical condition.
The workshop will span over 6 weeks from 4th December to 12th January, Monday to Friday 3-6 pm at Beyond Community near Auroville. Most Thursdays we will be dancing in nature (beach, quarry, forest etc.), and on Fridays will be performances. You may join for all 6 weeks, or even a day. The contribution is Rs. 500 per day, Rs. 2000 per week, and Rs. 10,000 for the entire 6 weeks. We would encourage at least a week’s participation if possible to have a fulfilling journey.
For more information or any queries you can What’sApp me (Zalina) at +91 8580464578.
Please do forward to those who you feel may be interested 🙏🌸
Thank you and looking forward to exploring with you ✨
