ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Open level
Inspired by her latest work STUCK, Mounia opens the doors to her creative universe, sharing the unique tools and processes she developed alongside her performers. Through guided exploration of choreographic material from the show, participants will dive into the physical and emotional challenges of the piece, gaining insight from the inside out.
This workshop creates a dedicated space for members of the whacking community to come together, move, and grow, as well as to advanced dancers. In a dance culture that often exists on the margins, spaces like this are vital for artistic exchange, visibility, and collective empowerment.
This workshop is a rare opportunity to connect deeply with Mounia's artistic practice, experience her movement language, and engage critically with the relationship between technique, performance, and meaning.
