Although Rudolf Laban is best known for his notation and movement analysis systems, I believe that his notions of movement harmony may ultimately be the most valuable part of his legacy. That’s why I am dedicated to articulating, exploring, and expanding Laban’s ideas.
Hence, the Movement Harmony Project!
Part 1 – a comprehensive explanation and exploration of space harmony – launched in June. Movement Harmony ALIVE is next, coming to New York City December 7th and 8th.
Led by Cate Deicher and myself, this advanced weekend workshop is designed to take Certificated Laban Movement specialists into new territory. For example, on Saturday, we go beyond well-known space harmony forms to work creatively with unfamiliar 5, 6, and 7 rings. On Sunday, we embody “harmonic” effort and space sequences, then explore how these can be deformed to create new movement material.
