When you improvise, do you think about what is going to happen in the next second ? Do you think about what you should answer to your partner while he/she is speaking ? Do you think, think, think about what you should do ? Do you feel the pressure of « Something HAS to happen » ? Do you dream about jumping on stage and playing without any pressure ?
What if you start to think about what you are already doing ? Where is your body ? How do you feel ? Do you like it ? Do you want to play it more ? And then, what if you start to play with what you already have, instead of coming up with something new?
In the workshop, you will learn to be aware of what you are actually doing and use it to improvise.
Improvising « the now » is a wonderful way of being playful, and improvise without worry about « what should happen next ».
