YAMA – choreographed by Laura Arend (50 minutes)
With Laura Arend, Patrick Entat, Lola Mino, Olivia Caillaud, Nitsan Maragaliot
The piece was inspired by Ms. Arend’s trip to India, where she learned about yoga, its philosophy and rules. The full-length work brings to stage the 5 YAMA (Yoga Sutras) : the principle of non-violence, sincerety, honesty, non-desire and contentment.
In opposition to this thinking, this dance work opens in a dark world, reflecting our everyday idiosyncrasies, the loss of the essential. It explores our reality as a mirror of our society, our lifestyles. Our egocentricity which is particularly good at causing ourselves and others to suffer.
Our inability not to judge and to leave the opinion of others aside.
Our material need that leads us to dream throughout our lives of that which we can’t acquire, and despite the bitterness this produces.
This work is created as a true voyage, a deeper exploration and movement toward personal emancipation. Dance is an amazing response, an extraordinary path to freedom, personal growth, healing and quite simply happiness.
