Feline mobility and Athletic training with Louise Michel Jackson

• What You’ll Experience

We'll move through a dynamic blend of games, physical tasks, and structured improvisation exercises.

Focus areas include: cardiovascular conditioning, muscle strengthening, ground support work, quadrupedalism (dynamic weight distribution across four limbs), shoulder girdle power and function, as well as the efficiency and fluidity of inversions and transitions between sky and earth (including small acrobatics and hand balances).

The training emphasizes power moves, and centrifugal force while fostering an awareness of the center to enhance overall movement efficiency.

Louise Michel Jackson questions the co-habitation and resonance between the athletic and somatic body.

Since 2018, she has dedicated herself to her research on bioluminescence - with video, light devices, and movement, in collaboration with sound artist Magali Babin.

She created a first project in collaboration with Ben Fury – STROKE aka SHUDDER, co-produced by Charleroi-Danses (OFFTA 2015, Palais de Tokyo, 2016, Tangente 2016, Raffinerie Charleroi- Danses 2017, Théâtre National de Bruxelles 2017, festival de la cité à Lausanne 2017, Accès Culture Montréal 2018).

She has worked for 20 years as a performer between Brussels and Montreal (Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Dana Gingras, Simon Portigal, Adam Kinner, Fréderick Gravel). She divides her time between performance and her second passion, horticulture.
