Embodied Dance & ButohBy Maria Sangiorgi & Yumi Umiumare @Bali Mountain Retreat at Mt Batukaru, Bali 5th to 10th June 2017

Weaving the Interior and exterior landscape

Yumi and Maria have known each other for nearly 20 years. They share a passion for dance and its transcendent and transformative qualities. They are like spiritual comrades and both have been exploring particular spiritual practice reflecting from their cultural and global identity through dance.

Maria is like the earth and water that is moved by the fire and air. She is seen by many who attend her workshops as a nurturing mother. In her teaching, she holds her students in their dance, enough for them to find their way, then sets them free. Whereas Yumi is like fire and air that is moved by the earth and water. As a kind of catalyst, Yumi also helps people to open up their new territories through her gentle provocation exercises. As Butoh originally called as ‘dance of darkness’, Yumi taps into the aspect of our shadow to unleash the unknown.

Their coming together in this 5 day Residential on Mt Batukaru, Bali, will be a beautiful blend of Female energy, as they bring together their magic from years of dance practice and performance to provide a rich, creative field for the participants to work in.

This wonderful week offers you:

  • 30 hours of training in total from Maria and Yumi.
  • Full accommodation* in the beautiful tranquil Bali Mountain Retreat, with all meals and drinking water provided
  • Transport to and from the airport or Ubud or other main destinations.
  • A beautiful massage
  • Temple trek
  • Traditional Joged Bumbung Dance performance and

About Maria About Yumi

Embodied Dance Embodied Dance takes from many forms of somatic movement, expression and dance, weaving them into a deep visceral experience. The work is informed by the natural way the body moves through, spirals, waves, circles and vibrations.

These energies are all present in the body system, like the earth and the universe. We are one flowing wave of energy. This is also expressed through traditional indigenous dances of the past, particularly by Egyptian dance. The dancer keeps coming back to the now, exploring her sensation, feelings and thought, bringing herself to a place of deep authenticity.

Butoh BU舞 means Dance, Toh 踏means stomping, Butoh is originally called Dance of Darkness and it was conceived in Japan during the social turmoil after the war. It was conceived by Tatsumi Hijikata as one of the most avant-garde arts movements started in late 50’s and early 60’s.

Yumi is taking the deep spiritual aspects of Butoh, for its transformative, ethereal and playful quality and explore our passive existence surrounded by our rich internal and external landscape.

エンボディーダンス&舞踏 By マリア・サンジョージ& ゆみ・うみうまれ バリ島、Batukaru山にてのリトリートにて 2017年6月5日(月)〜10日(土)

ゆみとマリアは20年近くの友人で、共に踊りへのパッションをシェアしてきました。ダンスのもつ深いパワーや、その変化をもたらす力を信じている彼女たち2人はまるでスピリチュアルな同士のよう。彼女たち2人は文化的でグローバルな視野を持ちながら、 ダンスを通してからだと心を解放できるように、スピリチュアルなワークを実践しています。

そして、ゆみは大地と水に動かされる、まるで火と風。ゆみも同じようにオープンに、また、 いわゆる「触媒」のように喚起をうながし、エクササイズを通し、 参加者が 新しい領域を自由に開いてゆけるように導いてゆきます。 もともと暗黒舞踏として始まった舞踏。ゆみの舞踏のセッションは、からだを通して、私たちの持つある種の闇とそれを照らす光、まだ見ぬ未知の世界が開放してゆけるように導いてゆきます。

このユニークな2人が共に行う5日間のバリ島、Batukaru山でのリトリートは、その自然溢れる場所で、優しく美しい女性的なエネルギーに満ちています。また長年のダンスとパフォーマンスの経験を持つ彼女たち2人独特のマジックにより、 クリエイティブで奥深いスペースが、参加者の皆さんと共に創られてゆくことでしょう 。

日本語での問い合わせは ゆみまで マリアについて(英語) ゆみについて

エンボディー・ダンス エンボディー・ダンスとは、様々な肉体の動きや表現やダンスの型を融合させたメソッドで、 深い感覚から踊りが感じられるように創られたものです。このワークの中では、渦をまく動き、波の動き、また、円を描き、振動の伝わるような動きなど、体にとってごく自然な動きから構成されます。まるで宇宙にある地球のように、私たちの体の器官の中には、さまざまなエネルギーが 存在します。 私たちの体の中には、一つのエネルギーの波が流れているものとも言えます。

エンボディー・ダンスは、過去の様々な伝統的なダンスや先住民的なダンス、特にエジプトのダンスの影響を受けております。踊り手たちは、自分たちが持つ 感覚、気持ちや、考え方を探りながら、それぞれの本来の姿に深く戻って行けるように、「いま目の前で起きていること」を探って行きます。

舞踏 もともと暗黒舞踏と呼ばれて始まった舞踏は、土方巽を中心に形成された前衛舞踊の様式で、 戦後50年代、60年代の社会的混乱の日本の中で生まれた、最も前衛芸術の一つといえます。ゆみの舞踏では、その深い精神性を探るのみならず、踊りの中でトランスしてゆく性質、またその不思議な空気感と遊びごごろを刺激してゆきます。からだを「受け身に」おくことで、からだの外的、内的風景を感じることができ、 そこから自然にわきおこってゆく踊りと、そのまわり にある空間を探ってゆきます。

ー舞踏 ★ BUTOHー

誰でも舞踏! こころの叫びに耳をすまし 見えないものに身をまかし わからない言葉でウジャグジャとつぶやいてみる そうすると知らないうちに、からだが動き出す からだの枠をはずして、動いて、叫んで、声出して、踊ってみる ついつい難しく考えられがちな舞踏 「 命がけで突っ立った死体」 として始まったのが60年代の暗黒舞踏 でも、本当は、自分たちのからだの奥底にうごめいている 不思議な生き物を解き放って、闇と暗黒と明るくダンスできるのが舞踏 ずしっと響いてくるようで軽いノリ 訳ありのようで単純 ちょっと妙で、ちょっと不思議だけど、なんだかやたらと楽しくなってきてしまう 誰でも舞踏! 泣いてもいい 笑ってもいい 感情をむき出しにしてもいい ほら!みんな動いて、飛んで、回転している 誰でも舞踏!

ードラム&ヴォイスー

人は太古から火を囲み、唄って踊ってきた。 ネイティブアメリカンドラムの音は心臓の音。 私たちが生まれてから死ぬまで、身体の中でずっと刻まれているビートを叩きながら、即興で声を出していく。 頭は分からないと言っても、身体はちゃんと唄うことを、踊ることを知っている。 唄い踊ることで人は大地と宇宙との繋がりを確かめてきた。 大地は私たちが唄い踊ることを一番楽しんでいる。 そして、唄うことで思い出す事がいっぱいあるんだよ。 この数百年の間に、私たちが忘れてしまったたくさんの大切な事を思い出す時間。 いのちの時間。 人間が唄い踊れば地球は大丈夫。そう大丈夫ーーーー!

*動きやすい服装でお越しください。裸足で踊ります。 *ドラムをお持ちでない方にはこちらで用意します。 *タオル・飲み物・着替えを各自ご持参ください。 *会場が初めてだと分かりにくいかもしれません。 どうぞ時間に余裕をもってお越しください。

Please come with comfortable cloth, and we will provide drum, if you don't have. Please contact Yumi if you need to translation to English!

WHITE DAY DREAM with Weave Movement Theatre 27 October 2016 – 6 November 2016preview: Thursday 27 October opening night: Friday 28 October Auslan interpreted performance: Sunday 6 November

Presented by Weave Movement Theatre and Yumi Umiumare, White Day Dreamis a unique fusion between Butoh and physical theatre performed by dancers with and without disability. The work moves between the surreal and absurd exploring universal human themes of memory and dreams, their fragility, transience and power. Like a dream itself, White Day Dream recalls subconscious emotions, where things are at once unexpectedly linked and disconnected.

Direction and Choreography by Yumi Umiumare Composition and Sound Design by Dan West Stage and Costume Design by Jennifer Tran Lighting Design by Richard Vabre Media Art by Bambang N Karim Performed by Emma J Hawkins, Willow J Conway, Tim Crafti, David Baker, Trevor Dunn, Janice Florence, Melanie Keely, Greg Muir, Ryan New, Emma Norton, Leisa Prowd and Anthony Riddell

PopUp Tearoom Series@ FOLA

2 -10 March @ Arts HouseDurational performance ins dreamlike installations with a Japanese tearoom.Through a series of tea ceremonies, Yumi and her collaborating artists invite you to ingest their unique teas of sereniTea, deformiTea, sensualiTea and more!

 
 
 

一服いかがですか ?Would you like a cup of tea? Enter a dreamlike installation space, where traditional, surreal and virtual tearooms pop up unannounced. Through a series of tea ceremonies, Yumi Umiumare and her collaborating artists invite you to ingest their unique teas of sereniTea, deformiTea, sensualiTea and more. Traditionally, tea-ceremony rooms had a small door which visitors bowed to enter, dropping the hierarchies of the world outside. In times of war, Medieval Samurai had to leave their swords outside as the tearoom provided relief from the emotional stress and social disorder of the battlefield.

Curious about what sort of ‘Tea’we can make today, Umiumare invokes the Japanese notion of ‘ma’ or ‘active pause’ to explore deep presence in spaces that can be simultaneously reflective and provocative

Melaka:27(Fri) November2015 White DayDream#2 by Yumi Umiumare and Bambang N Karim

Our memories are like a heritage but our brain could hemorrhage. White Day Dream is a series of experimentations of visual poetries inspired by Yumi’s own experience of her brother who had a cerebral hemorrhage. Our idea of reality blurs fluctuates and we try to substitute it with our own visionary fantasy and imagination. Is it really happening right in front of us or are we daydreaming? What if our piled up memories were suddenly erased.

PopUp Tearoom Series Pop-up Tearoom series is an experimentation of site-specific performances/installation, exploring surreal, mysterious, slightly odd and ‘mismatched’ tea ceremony in the middle of town. The pop up mobile space will be appeared in the different locations in order to create ephemeral and dreamlike spaces. Viewer’s perspectives and their internal feelings are purposely provoked and it activates cultural encounters and personal interactions.

Date: Friday, 27 November 2015 Time: 4:30PM Venue: Site 2
