Corpo Máquina was founded in 2017 by choreographer Guilherme Miotto. Miotto had a rough upbringing and is now putting his street experience in Brazil to good use in the northern suburbs of Tilburg and Breda, Dutch cities near the Belgian border. There, Corpo Máquina creates fascinating dance projects with young and less young local residents in which social empowerment is a co-benefit of the artistic approach. The work is gradually finding its way to more cities in the Netherlands and is based on the notion that every human body is a depository of memories and lived experiences. This determines from deep down in our subconsciousness how we move. It applies to both trained professional performers and untrained movers. Corpo Máquina is convinced that there is a dancer in everyone and that this dancer is capable of tearing down all manner of barriers between people (social, linguistic, cultural, age, etc.).
In this workshop, Guilherme Miotto, will take you on a journey to discover the dancer inside of you. Prepare to be moved.
