Contact Improvisation Festivals & Workshops in Europe | Emotion Bodies Events
EXODUS BUTOH LAB SERIES with Mutsumi and Neiro (Barcelona, May 30–31, 2026) is an immersive Butoh Laboratory workshop that invites participants into a process of constant departure rather than arrival, exploring dance as a way of being rather than a technique to master. Rooted in the life-practice and philosophy of Butoh as transmitted by Yoshito Ohno, this lab offers solo and group explorations, guided improvisation, and silent observation to unlearn form, reveal presence, and encounter the unknown through the body. Led by the acclaimed Japanese duet MUTSUMINEIRO—known internationally for their poetic, fragile, and dreamlike performances—the workshop is open to all who are willing to engage sincerely, offering not choreography but a deepened sense of body, space, and the mystery of being alive, where dancer and dance become one.

A unique opportunity of immersion for 7 days, for 35 participants, to experience an exploration of dance and movement with quality workshops, jams, live music and many other proposals to share.

THER IS NO AGE LIMIT TO PARTICIPATE. IT IS FOR PEOPLE THAT WORKS WITH YOUNG PEOPLE, PARTICIPANTS CAN HAVE ANY AGE.
In my classes, movement is not just about strength or flexibility but about deeply understanding the body and how it functions. Through the study of anatomy and biomechanics, we will learn to move more efficiently by harnessing gravity, inertia, and balance.
