For several years, Yuval Pick has been developing a method, Practice, that nourishes his work and is now the daily training of his company’s dancers.
Practice invites, through movement, each dancer to reconnect with their organic and intimate depth. Through written exercises and guided improvisation with playful and organic images, it enriches the dancer’s virtuosity. This method also enables a heightened awareness of presence in space, where each gesture, no matter how simple, becomes an expression of self.
These five fundamentals of Practice allow the physical and creative potential of dancers to be expanded: Body rotation, Weight transfer and rebound, Movement from the center to the periphery, The “space-in between”, Each movement is an action motivated by an intention
“Practice encourages dancers to (re)discover through the pleasure of dancing a freer relationship with space and with others.”
