Build your Laban skill set with expert guidance
Instructor Carol-Lynne Moore, considered one of the leading authorities on the Laban canon of thought, has decades of experience teaching Laban Movement Analysis at the graduate and professional levels. In this seminar she draws on her doctoral and post-doctoral research to illuminate Laban’s advancing thinking about human effort.
Three days of discovery and renewal
Each day is carefully planned to provide compelling movement experiences and new perspectives on Laban’s effort theories.
Deepen your understanding of movement dynamics:
- Effort Phrasing. Warm up using a variety of phrasing patterns to awaken the inner motivation to move.
- Effort States and Drives. Explore the inner landscape of movement moods through improvisations based on the motion factors of weight, time, space, flow and their evocative combinations.
- Effort Modulation. Experience balanced patterns of effort change drawn from Laban’s unpublished archives.
- Effort “Knots.” Discover the dramatic potential of these unique effort patterns identified by Laban.
Expand your expressive range
This advanced seminar explores effortful expression through movement, voice, and music. The Octa is relevant for dancers, choreographers, actors, directors, dance therapists, musicians, and all those interested in the psychology of movement.
