Elizabeth de Roza Master Class 2016

As part of the project The Body’s Journey, we have the pleasure to invite you to a conference/demonstration followed by a Master Class of Elizabeth de Roza, teacher of Lasalle College of the Arts, School of Theatre and Dance, Singapore.

 

Conference/Demonstration

Exploration of the body-in-motion through Kalaripayattu (traditional South Indian Martial Arts form).

How the training of Kalaripayattu leads to the embodiment of physical awareness of an actor. Investigating ‘the point of resonance’ that is akin to ‘presence’. Through this investigation, the actor develops a physical score that works on 5 basic rules of the body-in-space (soft fireworks). This active visceral response paired with the intellectually vivid physical vocabulary of Kalaripayattu retrained the actor’s body awakened to the creation of the body in performance (image-actions).

Topics addressed will be:

  1. Exploration of the ideology of Kalaripayattu as a vehicle for the embodiment of physical awareness and breath-in-motion
  2. Investigation of the heighten spine as a tool for the development of physical action
  3. The exploration of the 5 poses in Kalaripayattu as an active visceral response to ‘awaken’ the actor’s body to the creation of the body in performance (image-actions).
