WORKSHOP-2 AUDITION
"AUDITION-WORKSHOP"
Roberto Olivan, ex-member of Rosas dance company and Director of Enclave and Deltebre Festival is traveling to London next week to look for new dancers for his upcoming projects.
"MOVEMENT AND ENERGETIC MATERIAL" with Roberto Olivan
An audition, training and performance opportunity with the international artist Roberto Olivan, who will be teaching for first time in London.
Monday 2nd February-Sunday 8th of February (Both included) 2 hours of Technique and 2 hours of Choreography per day Mon-Thurs 11-4 Fri 11-5 Sat 12-4 Sun Performance 7.30pm
By learning and using many different kinds of dance techniques Roberto Olivan discovered their limitations for artistic expression. Whilst accepting the necessity for these conventional techniques, he knows that using them exclusively curtails freedom in the dance and the dancers. So he is embarked on a constant quest for the freedom which creates new forms; refining his technique to develop a unique language which can be recognized as his own style - a language centered on speed and precision.
Moving efficiently becomes an important issue. There are other important goals like working with gravity, consciousness of inner sensations such as breathing and the visualization of energy released by movement. This consciousness of body unites mind and physical structure and relates it to spatial energies, to others and one self. In this sense the body becomes a tool of projection for the physical and emotional flow. The force of mental images such as lines and structures around and in the body are used to define and help us to understand the body's functionality better.

This knowledge, the heroic path of the left hand Tantra, will include both physical powerful aspects belonging to the more technical Tibetan Tantra and the sensual refinement, with it's loving devotional side, of the Kashmirian and South Indian tantric approach. Though it take more than a life time to explore and experience the universe of Tantra, we will manage in 5 days to extract an important aspect from the Tantric reality and reveal it in a western style, though surrounded by it's genuine mysticism : The Tantric sexuality, a path to Oneness through couple loving sexual interaction. Rituals, powers, knowledge and techniques will lead to awareness and responsibility regarding what we really are...different from what we were. So dare to join for a deep experience of the tantric reality. Everyday life is the path. This workshop intends to give you some of the tools to speed up the process of evolution through the tantric path. It's a beginning and it's intention is to create a friendship between us not a follower-ship By becoming friends and comrades on the exciting Tantric path we will share the time, the energy and the space in which an answer will open new doors to new dimensions while a question will do the same. All of us, friends, will benefit. Everyday life is the path....
