Details
This event is being organised by the School of
Performance and Literature at Swansea Metropolitan University as part of the
PALATINE-funded project of the same title. This workshop aims to provide an
opportunity for the exploration of Feldenkrais Method and its application to
performer training. It seeks to draw together HE practitioners and teachers of
the dance and drama performance disciplines to observe the Feldenkrais Method
in practice or experience it for themselves under the guidance of respected
practitioners of the Method. It is equally hoped that the event will serve as a
forum for delegates to discuss a range of pedagogical issues and other concerns
inherent in the use of the Method in HE performer training.
Workshop leaders for this event will be:
§ Richard
Cave - Emeritus Professor of Drama and Theatre Arts, Royal Holloway University
of London
§ Garet
Newell - Educational Director of the Feldenkrais International Training Centre
(confirmation pending)
The demonstration workshop will explore specific
approaches adopted by these two distinguished Feldenkrais Practitioners in their
work with actors, dancers and performers in general.
