Three basic points in our workshop: Butoh Dance Method by T.Kasai
1) Authentic Butoh beyond choreographed movements.
2) Learning Japanese Butoh through the old day's butoh videos.
* Tatsumi Hijikata, Kazuo Ohno, Sankaijuku, Youko Ashikawa (Hakutobo),
Hoppo-butoh-ha, Dairakudakan, Kobuzoku Altaic, GooSayTen, etc.
3) Your own Original Butoh based on your characteristic body-mind.
Our Butoh workshop is based on body-mind physical training with butoh techniques.
We have found that many participants learned imagery/imaginary exercises in Ohno studio in Yokohama, or etc., and
we will give 15-20 body-mind oriented butoh exercises.
(We take physical conditions, age, etc. of each participant into consideration when practising.)
We offer you the opportunities for ...
- transcending the overly modernized or Westernized Butoh by restroing its archaic factors.
- overcoming the ordinary ideas about the body/mind by experiencing Noguchi Taiso gymnastics and body-mind therapies.
