Move. Express. Connect.

As part of the joint project between Movement Theatre and Nina Kalandadze we are inviting you to join us for a new Dance and Physical Theatre Workshop (duration 1 month), designed for anyone curious about movement, creativity, and self-expression—no experience is needed.

For registration, please follow the link and fill in the form: https://shorturl.at/KJkdR

Through guided improvisation, somatic practices, and expressive techniques from contemporary dance and physical theatre, we’ll explore how the body holds memory, emotion, and imagination.
You’ll move freely, awaken awareness, and connect with others in a safe, supportive space. Expect a mix of breath, flow, stillness, rhythm, and presence—all through your own natural movement.

 What to Expect:
• Gentle warm-ups to awaken awareness and presence
• Creative improvisation tasks to unlock authentic movement and expression
• Partner and group games that build trust, empathy, and playfulness
• Attention and etude exercises that facilitate concentration and coordination
• Body-mind practices like breath, voice, and spatial awareness
• Opportunities to explore your personal rhythm, energy, and emotional range — all through movement
• A supportive space to move, reflect, laugh, and feel alive without judgment or performance pressure

This workshop is about showing up as you are, learning to listen to your body, and exploring how it wants to move and communicate. This program combines a complex synthesis of inner state and choreography. It facilitates the softening of insecurities and gives you the opportunity to find and express your unique plasticity and create individual choreography through one´s own feelings.
Whether you feel stiff, curious, tired, playful, or just in need of something new—you are welcome. You don’t need flexibility, coordination, or confidence. Just bring your body and a little openness.

 What You Might Leave With:
• A sense of inner freedom and bodily presence
• Renewed playfulness and creativity
• New tools for stress release, grounding, and emotional regulation
• Connection—with others, and more importantly, with yourself

 Workshop Details:
• Start: October 1st. End: Oct 31
• Monday, Wednesday, Friday
• 19:30 – 21:00
• Fee: 530 GEL
• Working language: Geo & Eng
