Moving and Witnessing Workshop (05:04)

FREE PREVIEW

A group of theatre and dance students is shown working with Goldhahn at Dartington College of Arts. One part of the group watches while the other group is moving. Students appear very confident in this experience. Some of them abandon their sense of self temporarily in order to contact extreme emotional expression. They also show an ability to react to each other with ease as trainee dancers and actors are able to do.

Collaboration (05:07)

Leena Rouhiainen and Soili Hämäläinen moving quietly and attentively side by side. Both are Professors of Dance and use their practice as research. Here each of them follows her own movements initiated by inner attentiveness. Each one seems to have a bond of embodied communication to the other dancer and to Goldhahn, their witness with the camera. The focus here is on the discovery of dance movement through Authentic Movement.

Four Movers (07:29)

This is a film that captures one of Goldhahn's workshop sessions with dancers and PhD research students at Theatre Academy, University of the Arts in Helsinki.

Graffiti (04:33)
