Poetry in motion - Poetry in motion

This intensive 3-day workshop combines Tiziana Longo's distinctive blend of Butoh-inspired embodied composition and somatic awareness.

Participants embark on a transformative journey in which they explore:

• Deep embodiment and sensory presence as the basis for authentic movement development
• The poetics and philosophy of Butoh, understood not only as a dance form, but as a method of inner listening and personal transformation
• Somatic tools and movement-anatomical approaches that unleash creative potential and promote movement competence
• Structured improvisation and choreographic methods that honour the wisdom and complexity of the body

Benefits:

Participants can expect to deepen their somatic awareness and cultivate a more intimate connection with their bodies. Through the integration of Butoh, somatic tools, and creative improvisation, the workshop fosters greater movement intelligence, emotional resilience, and expressive clarity. Many find a renewed sense of presence, a strengthened ability to listen inwardly, and expanded creative possibilities both in their artistic work and personal lives. The experience also supports healing by offering trauma-informed practices that honor the body’s wisdom and natural capacity for transformation.

For Whom?

This workshop is recommended for experienced movers, dancers, choreographers, somatic practitioners, and movement educators who wish to deepen their connection to embodied practice and explore creative expression through Butoh and somatic awareness. While it is designed for those with an established movement background, anyone with a sincere interest in embodied movement, artistic exploration, and trauma-informed practice is welcome to join.
