Private lessons in Thessaloniki, Greece:
Private individual lessons are the perfect option for those seeking for a deeper understanding and more intensive development of the butoh process. The classes are conceived as a space for exploration and discovery of each student's own body poetry.
Conceiving our anatomy as the physical manifestation of the soul, the main aim of the classes is to train the body as a channel to express the spirit, through a series of exercises adjusted to the needs and possibilities of each participant.
Nyx Butoh training is composed of three essential standpoints:
- Training the body (physical conditioning): exercises derived from contemporary dance, martial arts, singing, theatre and clown.
- Training the soul (butoh elements): traditional butoh exercises which explore the struggle between the opposites (life and death, masculine and feminine, yin and yang, day and night...), the sense of emptiness, the connection with the universe, and the diverse archetypes which relate to the human being.
- Unfolding the soul (artistic expression): the link between our spiritual being and our physical manifestation. We all own up to a rare poetic universe, a personal (hi)story, an unparalleled body suit, a specific geographic and cultural background; all of which makes us unique living pieces of art.
It is important to note that there are no age, experience or physical limits or requirements to dance butoh; on the contrary: considered primarily as a training of the soul, once its poetry has touched our heart, its truthfulness will guide us to our highest expressiveness in each moment or stage of our lives.
In Sensei Yoshito Ohno's words: "butoh is a starting point for a revolution. In that revolution it is important first to construct, and then to break, like kids destroy their sand castles. In that construction there are the dance and movement techniques, but the essential is to break to revolutionize the world."
