Regular training consists of:
- ‘MB’ (mind/body, muscles/bones) An energetic, dynamic and rhythmic movement work-out that observes the kinaesthetic sensitivity and co-ordination potential of the body-in-motion while developing strength, endurance, flexibility and grounding. .
- ‘Manipulations’ Structured and paced work with partners, concerned with breathing, stretching, alignment and the notion of ‘relaxation’.
- ‘Laboratory’ A wide forum of explorations including work on segmentation, different speeds within the body and the notion of time, sensory investigation, spatial awareness inside and outside the body, image-to-movement work. Emphasis is given on observation and feedback as a means to objectify experience and to sharpen and articulate the perception of bodies.
The term & philosophical basis for Body Weather was founded in the early 1980's by Butoh dancer Min Tanaka and further developed by Laboratories worldwide.
