hoek 
collective



Dancers & choreographers Dunya Narli (she/her), Elise Ludinard (she/her), Théo Marion-Wuillemin (he/they) & Victoria Kennett (she/her) gathered in 2020 and co-created the HOEK Collective. They have been practising and crafting tools for navigating instant composition & improvisation. In the past years, they performed and taught in various places across Europe (Belgium, France, Germany, Turkey). They are also very involved in the alternative brussels performing arts scene, being part of WEi Studio.

Their research is slow and ongoing, unwilling to conform to the institutionalisation of dance. An ongoing question that drives HOEK is, how to co-create in a collective? What remains at the core is practising the art of improvisation through the moving body.

28.06 / 10h-13h

This class explores tools of composition and improvisation. The practice involves the sensorial body, the imagination, the sounds of the voice and the poetry of words. Participants are invited to build trust in their bodies, create availability and responsiveness to movement and encounters.
The workshop will move through games of action and reaction, intuitive responses, and physical conversations between bodies. Together, we will explore group dynamics that shape, investigate, coexist, listen, and create instant strategies through dancing.

HOEK offers tools to navigate the in-between—between doing and sensing, performing and observing. Poetry, voice, and imagery become catalysts or anchors for shared improvisation. 
You don’t need to “know” what’s next—just stay curious.

After lunch, the practice can continue into a more open form through a dance jam with live music, where the tools and experiences of the workshop can expand and transform collectively.  Open to all movers.
