Movement consultation for the performing arts

As a movement consultant I utilise a combination of movement creation methods, dramaturgy and choreography to create and strengthen the physical expression of your artistic work.

The first step in the process is for me meet you as a director/maker/writer and anyone else involved in the decisions regarding artistic expression to get an understanding of what the work is about and what your wishes are in terms of physical expression. This can mean showing me texts, pictures, videos, music, conceptual explanations and the like.

After that I will go on to develop a plan for how to approach creating the physical performance elements. This is usually a combination of exercises, movements and improvisational and compositional concepts.

Lastly we reach the creation time, where it is your choice of when in the process you would wish for me to contribute. It can be for a few hours a day or be for full working days. I recommend at least one week so the movements and concepts are given enough time to be remembered and easily utilised by the performers.
