『農村にこそ芸能の原点があり、農作業での身体の使い方にこそ舞踏の原点がある」

そういって、私が生まれる前からこんな活動を世界の行く末をしって活動をはじめていた身体気象研究所。
大学出たてで日本に帰ってダンス白州に参加した頃は、あの農村での夏は衝撃でもあり何か懐かしい嵐に吹かれる毎日だった。
☆Oguriさんのワークショップ日程が決定した。
身体と私たちを取り巻く環境との交差点を探索する時間になればいいな～。
対象者：身体を探求する作業に興味のある方、表現経験、運動経験をといません♫

Body Weather is a comprehensive training and performance practice that investigates the intersections of bodies and their environments. Bodies are not conceived as fixed and separate entities but are - just like the weather - constantly changing through an infinite and complex system of processes occurring in- and outside of these bodies.
This introductory workshop proposes a re-examination of the habitual body and it's accompanying mental structures as a means of indicating and reflecting upon possible areas of change in the perception and the actual state of our own body and that of others.
As a training, Body Weather is of relevance to anyone interested in exploring the body and physical presence and can be aligned to various dance and theatre practices.
The daily training-routine consists of:
- ‘MB’ (mind/body, muscles/bones)
An energetic, dynamic and rhythmic movement work-out that observes the kinaesthetic sensitivity and co-ordination potential of the body-in-motion while developing strength, endurance, flexibility and grounding.
- ‘Manipulations’
Structured and paced work with partners, concerned with breathing, stretching, alignment and the notion of ‘relaxation’.
- ‘Laboratory’
A wide forum of explorations including work on segmentation, different speeds within the body and the notion of time, sensory investigation, spatial awareness inside and outside the body, image-to-movement work.
Emphasis is given on observation and feedback as a means to objectify experience and to sharpen and articulate the perception of bodies.
The term and philosophical basis for Body Weather was founded in the early 1980's by dancer Min Tanaka and further developed by Laboratories worldwide. Oguri was members of Min Tanaka’s Maijuku Performance Company in Japan. Body Weather US is a platform for Training and Performance Research. Meyou Kobayashi was studied and performed with Oguri when she was a student at California Institute of the Arts where she was majored in Dance department.
