Course overview

Liberate the full range of your expressive physicality and connect with your sensing self.

Based on the theory and practices of somatic movement and aspects of physical theatre, this course utilises improvisational movement as a means of imaginative expression.

The workshops involve guided movement explorations to music with space for improvisation and play. It expands into reflective personal writing practice and the course culminates in a sharing of your explorations with the rest of the group, either as a solo piece or co-created with others.

Imagination Through Movement is led by RADA Alexander Technique teacher Korina Biggs, who is a performer, a physical theatre educator and has an MA in Dance and Somatic Wellbeing.

What will I learn on this course?

  • Develop more freedom and confidence with moving from your imagination.
  • Gain experience in writing with movement as a stimulus.
  • Gain experience in bringing together your own movement and text to share with the group.
