Myself and the Seki Method
I have been a student of Minako Seki for 10 years now, learning Butoh through the lenses of the Seki Method and becoming her assistant in her workshops and in the Seki Method Teacher Training.
Minako’s method for movement creation and choreographic process is composed by a rigorously thought series of exercises that understand the body as a whole without separation of physical and psychological. All the aspects of the human body’s constitution are taken into consideration with equal relevance and co-evolve through each exercise.
I find this method very enriching once it is not exclusive to a certain body reality and is open to interact with each and every other learning and practice that I’ve gathered through my artistic career.
