Movement Invitations: The Rhythm Is Plural

Performance-Projekt with Beatriz Silva Aranda


In this project, we explore rhythmic diversity, collective impulses, and different forms of togetherness through embodied imagination. Rhythm becomes a technology of survival, resistance, and imagination—a living terrain on which community is constantly renegotiated. Through breath, vibration, footwork, and the relationship to gravity, participants are invited to activate impulses, resonances, and interactions that shift between individual and collective bodies, and to explore an ecology of rhythm as living architecture. Based on release, flying low, house footwork, and Latin American dances, the project opens up a space for collaborative composition and for diverse ways of moving and being together. Guided movement research, breathing and foot exercises, coordination tasks, and musical explorations promote a differentiated, heterogeneous sense of rhythm. Movement Invitations emphasizes relational composition and interdependence and cultivates presence, attention, and curiosity in the search for new forms of movement and togetherness.

Additionally there is the class Rhythm Lab - Training in motione Class by Beatriz Silva Aranda from 16.02.– 25.03.2026  | Mon & Wed 18:15-19:45
This class is a complete training combining strength, conditioning, standing and floorwork coordination, breath, and body awareness. The practice emphasizes on technical principles - such as scapula-to-center, heel-to-pelvis connections, articulations, and energy flow—while exploring time, repetition, and gravity as movement partners. Blending contemporary techniques, release, flying low, and house- and Latin-inspired footwork patterns with guided improvisation and movement research invite exploration of association and disassociation, individual and collective pulse, silence, and syncopation. Partner and group practices foster co-regulation, feedback, and shared inspiration. The space balances physical training with open research and movement sequences, offering a laboratory to sweat, listen, re-pattern, play, and expand personal and collective movement vocabularies.
