TSW Suzuki Sessions

The South Wing will present a one day workshop August 4th,2010 at the LINES OF FLIGHT training intensive.

After returning from a year of touring with Tadashi Suzuki and the SCOT company, Kameron Steele is focusing on teaching the updated Suzuki basic training, No.1 ~ No.6. Steele will briefly demonstrate how the current training differs from the training based on the 1991 master class, and take the group through several of the core exercises, with particular attention to breath control, balance and energy production. Steele will also incorporate The South Wing's complementary exercises to the training, preparing and then releasing the body from the intensity of the Suzuki work. The evening sessions will be a short video demonstration of TSW's work, followed by a discussion focused on the relationship between training, technique and building an aesthetic. Both novices and experienced Suzuki practitioners welcome.

SEPARATING

Saying goodbye, don´t suffer
(And make) noise like a big gong

Don´t cry, (my) seagull
For that person (gone away)
Although the day is clear,
The ship´s
Black smoke (fills the air)
