Dynamic Expansion Moveable Cinema

Dynamic Expansion and  Moveable Cinema

Dynamic Expansion: movement research of the Fluid Body embodiment with expanded consciousness.

Moveable Cinema: perception of the felt-sensed visual field while in movement, as well as an agent for movement

Dynamic Expansion workshop far Nyon 2022Moveable Cinema is a movement practice created to expand the felt-sense and consciousness of vision while in movement. Shared though a series of mandalas (or practices) it enables one to find a unique path to research consciously how the expanded sense of vision can tune one into one’s body and acutely to the present. Beyond self-oriented practice, practices with others challenges and enriches subtle and powerful forms of witnessing. This becomes a vital and reliable tool for performance.
Moveable Cinema exists within the frame of Dynamic Expansion an integrated embodiment approach to orient to the Craniosacral System; tuning into it’s waves and stillness phenomena, grounds the practice.

Borrowing from Nature a Bee Hive model, wherein an organism with others of likeness live together in a chosen place to thrive. Within the hive there is specialization as each individual has a distinct task/specified role. Respecting that all tasks are valued equally: meaning the hive would not exist without these roles being carried out, they act as a whole or a system or a superorganism.

Shannon Cooney

Dance Artist | Choreographer | Dance Educator | Craniosacral Practitioner

Shannon Cooney’s dance practices, creative research for her teaching and craniosacral work are parallel and interweaving streams. They are derived from her deep curiosity, experiences and wonder with the body and her connection with nature. Dance is the source for her connection to body-based practices: creating the ground for body and mind’s capacity for movement, imagination, healing and connection. Nature is a source for co-creative balance within all processes.
