Poética del cuerpo que se mira

Abstract

The study of the body is what pertains to this reflection, and delving into a self-reflective process is what is intended to be addressed in this text. Movement as a guiding axis within professional dance training allowed me throughout the process to ask questions that I can still answer today. I am invaded by certain questions about the fragmentation of the body, about how it is understood, about how dance proposals are approached, about what the demands of a professional dancer are, about the awareness that is achieved in movement; intuitively, I approach certain appreciations, impressions, and above all sensations that have been incorporated. Chapter one is quite personal as it describes sensations that remained throughout the career process and took place in the creation of the piece "possible victims"; when discussing the body from my own dance bodily experience, the writing becomes irregular, somewhat unsystematic; at this point, certain perceptions are addressed emotions, situations that are etched in the body.
