Course Information:
The Creation and Performance Group, led by Omer Uziel – dancer, choreographer, contemporary dance teacher and therapist, is a framework for creation and performance through the language of contemporary dance, designed for those who have experienced contemporary dance and have a passion to encounter emotional and energetic materials beyond technique and expand them into creation.
In the Creation and Performance Group, we will expand and deepen movement materials and experience creative processes. We will seek physical practices to express ideas, dreams and fantasies. We will learn, play, disassemble and assemble movement materials, in order to discover the potential inherent in contemporary dance.

The course will be made up of 8 sections (each section consists of 3-4 sessions). Each section will be dedicated to a different choreographic practice, to movement research and performative exploration.
Within the framework of the 8 sections, we will create small practices – a kind of “reviews” – from which we can build short or long performances or present materials in the format of a short performance or a performance with a workshop and a conversation.
1. First section – “Introduction and biography”: dancing the ‘I’ and the ‘not I’.
2. Second section – “Two are better than one”: combining personal movement materials.
3. Third Section – “Exaggerations”: Exaggerating My Natural Propensity in Dance.
4. Fourth Section – “Composition”: Material with Omar.
5. Fifth Section – “Shape of Quality”: An Exploration of Different Movement Qualities.
6. Sixth Section – Group Improvisation.
7. Seventh Section – Performative Rituals for Releasing Pain.
