The moving body lies at the core of his practice, always in relation to the space and environment around it. The workshop <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Practices of Attention<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is both a movement-based and choreographic practice, one that takes its own distinctive approach to choreological and compositional principles.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paying attention transforms how we perceive, move, make decisions and are affected. Through fascia, skeletal and visceral structures, weight and support, we will explore the body\u2019s inner landscapes. Continuities of connective tissue running through and connecting the body, allow us to experience how tensions, forces and movements circulate within a living, three-dimensional network. Working with fascia brings us to the power and radicality of softness. Engagement is not to be confused with will, intensity with tension, or precision with control. Instead, we will give sensations time. Not to do less, but to intervene differently and with delicacy, allowing what mastery might otherwise conceal to emerge. Observing while practising, practising while observing: to feel is also to feel oneself feeling. Movement thus becomes a negotiation between intention and sensation, form and flow, decision and receptiveness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through guided practices, improvisations and scores, we will explore collective attention as choreographic material: being affected by what surrounds us and letting the \u201cprotagonist\u201d \u2014 myself, the other, the group, the space&#8230; \u2014circulate. Attention keeps the distribution of positions open. Therefore, every way of practising already contains a way of composing. Cultivating practices of attention means allowing dance to emerge in the making and making its invisible processes visible. These are the forces we will explore throughout the workshop.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Organised by Kino \u0160i\u0161ka and NDA Slovenia with the support of the EU programme LLB.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the support of: <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5083\" src=\"http:\/\/cofestival.si\/2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2025\/11\/Funded-EU-300x67.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"67\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cofestival.si\/2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2025\/11\/Funded-EU-300x67.png 300w, https:\/\/cofestival.si\/2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2025\/11\/Funded-EU-1024x228.png 1024w, https:\/\/cofestival.si\/2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2025\/11\/Funded-EU-768x171.png 768w, https:\/\/cofestival.si\/2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2025\/11\/Funded-EU-1536x343.png 1536w, https:\/\/cofestival.si\/2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2025\/11\/Funded-EU-2048x457.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-4342\" src=\"http:\/\/cofestival.si\/2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-09-133440-300x116.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"176\" height=\"68\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cofestival.si\/2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-09-133440-300x116.png 300w, https:\/\/cofestival.si\/2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-09-133440.png 478w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 176px) 100vw, 176px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Funded by the European Union.
