Inma Pavon Movement sessions are based on a combination of playful creative movement techniques. Her embodied approaches are multidirectional (personal creative research practices & multidisciplinary collaborative projects] and observational of the ‘everyday’. Inma’s passion for the Body’s creative language brings a world of textures, colours into the creative practice., enabling actors to better develop the physicality of their characters for screen and/or stage performance.
Her sessions are structured with warm-ups (easy stretches, meditation practices, ensemble creative performative tools and solo creative practices. The sessions will work towards a final sharing where the students will be able to explore the performative experience of movement. Her sessions allow for all physical abilities to explore the inner creative bodies, and for extra support if needed.
