CMH, acronym of Creative Movement Hacking®, represents a versatile support technique created by Cora Gasparotti, which acts as a container of practices designed to enhance creativity, technique, expressiveness and body awareness through the use of New Technologies.
The result of a long process of research and experimentation, CMH offers programs designed for dancers, actors and performers and specific paths dedicated to people's well-being. The method offers somatic and exploratory approaches, promoting motor identity and the simultaneous development of technical and creative skills, allowing for customization of goals and adapting to participants' skill level.
Deepen your relationship with the surrounding space and explore new qualities of movement through unexplored viewpoints.
Designed for dancers of various levels of training, age and technique of reference, the course proposes practices that use New Technologies as an amplification of body and space perception, in order to provide new creative stimuli, choreographic or improvisational, and refine technical principles of the students, accompanying them toward a personal research for their own motor identity, favoring qualitative versatility and expressive authenticity.
Adaptable to different ages and contexts, from corporate to educational and cultural settings, the course is designed to provide new tools for body awareness to anyone who wants to deepen their relationship with movement for a renewed balance between mind, body and expression. The proposed experiences aim at working on physical and emotional blocks by exploring the relationship with others and the surrounding space, the research for one's own authentic movement and the communicative abilities of one's own body. The course promotes a sustainable, functional and humanistic approach to new technologies, opening reflections and facilitating tool's understanding and interaction.
