How do you stimulate movement awareness and exploration within the group(s) you are working with? Get inspired by this course, in which we combine dance techniques with drawing exercises!

Through guided movement sequences, we become aware of bodily sensations and movement dynamics. Next, we translate these experiences onto paper using various drawing techniques. We repeat. We reflect. We deepen the connection between physical expression and visual representation.

By broadening our horizon beyond the artistic domain we are familiar with, we enrich our teaching practices and identify new paths for creative exploration with groups.

Practical

Wear clothes and shoes suited for moving. Take into account that the drawing materials can leave traces, so preferably wear something dark. All drawing materials are provided.

Bring a bottle of water and a light lunch (or you can buy lunch at the nearby supermarket or eat in at the Entrepot Café in OPEK).

Level of experience

WISPERpro: for (future) teachers interested in combining movement with visual arts and the other way round. Your level of experience in teaching does not matter! You preferably have a background in visual arts OR dance/movement.
