"For the erotic is not a question only of what we do; it is a question of how acutely and fully we can feel in the doing." (Audre Lorde)
moving erotic intelligence is an experimental training based on somatic practices, emoting bodies and contemporary dance, which evolves into sensual and powerful presence and improvisation. It focuses on the capacity to feel and elaborates a practice of cultivating feelings and transforming them into a subversive tool. It is played with leading scores of Emoting Bodies; anatomical instructions, distance and closeness, breath and touch. How do eyes, fingers, hair, skin and voice touch? Playfulness, lively energy and the connection to the politics of our world become open compositions and forms.
