TEACHING
Open Laboratories - Perfromance Projects - Participatory Public Format
to create an opportunity for mutual exchange and offer a close perspective on contemporary dance creations .
EPlay PRACTICE
training for professionals and students
The practice is mainly focused on floorwork technique, facilitated by the integration of flying-low elements and improvisation tasks. The space around the body takes on a spherical shape within which the peripheries of the body (hands, feet, head) can explore infinite interconnections, dynamics and speed.
We work on coordination,stamina,musicality but also sense-body planning and precision in execution.
In a playful environment, we learn choreographical material and find satisfaction through our dancing and sharing with the group.
I share EPlay practice in dance centers, academies and theater dance companies internationally in Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland and Switzerland.

INFINITE PATTERNS
workshop with Sonia Rodriguez Hernandez
The workshops it is designed for students and professional dancers.
It is a unique opportunity to experience the combination of the two different styles that characterize the dance vocabulary of Enrico Paglialunga and Sonia Rodriguez.
The two choreograhers have been sharing their artistic practices for about four years and through this workshop format, they want to explore the infinite possible pathways towards a new language that blends the characteristics of both. You will get the chance to explore deeper the personal energetic and physical work of the two artists through the study of technique, improvisation, partnering and choreographic material. Two teachers, two styles and many new information to explore.
Particular attention will be given to each dancer in searching for their own unique personality and expression by revisiting the material learned during the day.

'LIGHTHOUSE' - performance project
with Sonia Rodriguez Hernandez
Based on the last duet production ‘Lighthouse’ created from the collaboration between Sonia Rodriguez and Enrico Paglialunga, this performance project arises with the idea to research the combination of both choreographic languages in a new version for a group.
We investigate the theme of ‘travel’ as a transitory moment in our life. We want to give our contribution towards a more empathic way of perceiving not only the process of migration, but what happened in a human scale to the persons that leave everything to move to a land where they expect to find a better living.
What happens when you leave your homeland, your mother language and common sense, and you enter into this uncertain space where there are no longer references? What we leave behind keeps evolving, developing a life while we are not there. You are still there but as an absent presence (for your family, your loved ones). How do we deal with this double status?. We are moving in a new world, without known references as basic as language (in its broad sense) and we carry our own known world as an invisible shadow. This format is an experimental way to gather together various backgrounds towards the realization of a short creation inspired by the characteristic of each participant.
