Callus & Analysis
this is a workshop for those interested in balancing working hard with working smart. a technical and physical approach, jam-packed with improvisation, set material, and analytical tasks. over these 8 days, we will dive into the how, what, and why… not to overthink, but to sharpen intention and make choices that speak. we’ll create a shared space to explore and exchange ideas. we will try to challenge habits, using tools and tasks that risk and stretch personal limits. i’m always looking for ways to personalise my approach to the people in the room, meeting you where you are, while nudging you beyond where you’re comfortable. the aim is to push boundaries and explore something you can genuinely enjoy. we’ll take time to run, fly, jump, dive, fall, get back up, and keep going. and, of course, always accompanied by carefully curated, algorithm-free tunes, 100% handpicked for you.
the description reflects an artist’s idea which was developed at the time it was submitted to b12. it may have changed by the time the workshop or the performance project is starting. please stay flexible. thank you!
