PHILIPPE BLANCHARD Biography

Born in France, Philippe was educated at nine years of age as a ballet dancer and a musician at the Conservatory of Music and Dance in La Rochelle (FR). After performing for various established dance companies (NDT, Batsheva Dance Cie and Cullberg ballet), Philippe began to develop his choreographic practice in Stockholm, where he swiftly founded a small flexible organisation which would respond to contemporary dance projects and various experimental ventures.

In 2018 after a few experiences and commission works in Europe, he left the producing art area and its circuit, inquiring about art and productivism and /or art and capitalism to conduct personal studies. Between 2018 and 2021, he taught dance compositions, choreographic scores and interdisciplinary practices at various universities, dance companies and dance organisations in the U.K., France and Sweden.

Three years ago, he returned to university to study Arts and Ecology at the prestigious Art school of Dartington/Plymouth University, where he recently graduated with an M.A.

He is now a specialised lecturer, teacher, curator, and artist in Sustainable Methodology in Performative Practice.

WORKSHOP

Rewiring Our Perceptions: The Journey of Unlearning and Relearning Our Senses

This transformative workshop offers a chance to step beyond and fully engage in the experience of profound connection. Over two days, we’ll explore ways to strengthen our relationship with our bodies and the environmental world.

Through improvisation, exploration, sensory awareness, and movement, we will uncover pathways that deepen our understanding of the interconnectedness that weaves all living organisms together.

The practice and tools you’ll acquire will help cultivate a more profound sense of belonging. The workshop allows participants to venture into practice to question their body senses. To unlearn and relearn by seeing and hearing about the world in which they are participating.

________________________________________________________________
All participants are welcome, and no dance experience is required. If you practice a physical activity that promotes mindfulness and well-being (yoga, pilates, meditation), and are genuinely interested in ecology, this workshop is for you.
