Tanz- und Bewegungsworkshop mit Anna Dego

DANCE WORKSHOP "Around the tarantella" with Anna Dego

This workshop approaches the tarantella as a bodily and ritual practice, envisioned not only as a traditional dance, but also as a living language capable of transcending the present. Through rhythm, listening and movement, the work explores the link between memory, body and emotion, establishing a dialogue between the ancestral strength of tradition and contemporary sensitivity.

This research does not aim to reproduce folkloric or codified forms, but to reveal the transformative essence of the tarantella: a space of connection between opposites – heaven and earth, impulse and resistance, individual and collective – where each participant can rediscover an authentic presence and their own gestural singularity.
