To discover an artist's aesthetic, universe and creative process.
FOR PROFESSIONAL AND TRAINING DANCERS
Participants are invited to join Bryana Fritz and Thibault Lac’s ongoing choreographic exploration, which examines the tradition of medieval courtly love through the visual and symbolic world of the Lady and the Unicorn tapestries. The workshop focuses on the project’s internal mechanisms: how images, myths, and sensory materials are translated into movement, relational structures, and performative scores. Dancers engage in practices that activate the senses—touch, hearing, sight, smell, and taste—while invoking the elusive “sixth sense.”
Together, participants will explore shifting relationships between the “lady” and the “unicorn,” the human and the animal, leading and following, looking and being looked at. These figures are not approached as fixed characters, but as relational states that constantly reconfigure questions of hierarchy, intimacy, and power.

In touch with the movement, in touch with the moment
Daniel Linehan and Victor Pérez Armero will share with participants various dance practices drawn from the production *The Quiet Magic*. The workshop will invite participants to rediscover the fundamentals of the body in motion: breathing, circularity, the relationship to gravity, and touch. It will explore the body’s natural fluidity in motion as a source of strength and expression, through movement qualities imbued with tenderness and delicacy. It will encourage the cultivation of nuanced forms of attention and engagement with the body and the environment. By observing the body’s vitality and energy flow, the workshop will seek to inspire new ways of moving and being.
OPEN TO ALL AMATEUR AND PROFESSIONAL DANCERS

FOR PROFESSIONAL AND TRAINING DANCERS

Dancing the problem / Dangerous dances
Diego Agulló is a researcher and artist whose work spans the fields of contemporary dance, philosophy, and somatics. Since 2013, he has been studying how danger can become a choreographic driving force, giving rise to the practice of “Dancing the Problem” and “Dangerous Dances.” For him, dance arises from a confrontation with a problem rather than from a deliberate intention.
This workshop explores the transformation of danger, negativity, and violence into movement. Participants will seek to create conditions where dance becomes inevitable, imposed by friction, constraint, or pressure. The ultimate goal is to redefine dance as an act of survival, resistance, and affirmation in the face of problems.
