ANIMOTUS – Awaken the moving animal within you

ANIMOTUS is a somatic and performative practice that merges technique, instinct, and metamorphosis through movement. It arises from the meeting of floorwork, animal flow, contact improvisation, and psycho-emotional exploration, creating a dynamic and transformative experience that traverses body, imagination, and connection.

The body moves fluidly and organically, constantly shifting, deeply listening to instinct and guided by clear intention.

At the heart of Animotus lies the fusion of human and animal—not through imitation, but through symbolic, poetic, and sensorial integration.

Through physical exercises, perceptual practices, and creative imagery, Animotus invites participants to explore stage presence, expressive freedom, and the primal power of movement.It is designed for dancers, performers, and body artists seeking a space of authenticity, inquiry, and transformation.

Animotus is a journey for those who long to awaken their instinctive, vibrant, and untamed body.
