Research

Movement Angol pushes forward its aim in developing work of artistic excellence by continuing to develop the company’s language of expression and choreographic approach, through practice as research.

The company’s language draws from the philosophical teachings and practices of African dance, influenced by Jazz,  Western Contemporary and Caribbean dance to form a movement synthesis that articulates the expression of lines in dialogue with curves,  to form a harmonising union between rhythm,  movement and the body.

The research focuses on the embodied nature of African dance forms as the basis for exploration, to inform an embodied practice that engages the conscious self as a pivotal anchor that binds mind and body in a creative discourse through the present self.
