Based on the abilities or needs of each participant, the aim is to potentiate the diversity of corporalities and their expressive possibilities with a proposal that arises from their own experience in butoh, and other dance and theatrical sources. The technique or physical training does not refer to virtuosity, but rather to a conscience and a state of alertness, which allows the breaking of corporal and mental patterns to exceed one's own limits.
