Class Description:
This masterclass is an approach around perpetual motion for varied artists in theater, dance, circus, and other performance mediums. In this workshop, through spiral principles with an approach to different gyratory dances, we will work on how to produce centrifugal force and how to play with it. We will carry out work that is introspective as well as external, which we will each share at our own pace.
At times, alone or in couples, with objects or just with our bodies. At other times spinning and eventually motionless. The main goal of this workshop are to increase our focus and self-management of our bearings and of ourselves.
Born in Argentina, Juan Ignacio Tula is a graduate from the Center National des Arts Du Cirque de Châlons in Champagne. Between 2015 and 2019 he developed numerous projects with the company MPTA-Mathurin Bolze, including his works with Stefan Kinsman, Somnium and Santa Madera, and then his solo, Instante. In 2019, he founded the independent company Cie7bis in Lyon to develop his research on the cyr wheel apparatus, and to find new ways of collaboration between Europe and South America to promote circus practice.
