Livres par Joan Davis

Joan Davis has lived her whole life in Ireland, where she has pioneered innovative contemporary dance practices since 1976. From 1996, when she moved to Wicklow and opened a small wholistic center, she developed the arts practice and performance offerings of Maya Lila. Two books Maya Lila, Bringing Authentic Movement into Performance: The Offering and Maya Lila, Bringing Authentic Movement into Performance: The Process was published in 2007. A film of the work of Maya Lila called In the Bell's Shadow was made in 2013. In 2012 Joan offered a somatic training, the first of its kind in Ireland, called ORIGINS. This training covered somatic experiences, developmental and psychological movements from pre-conception to approximately eighteen months of age. Currently Joan is offering a new programme called ORIGINAL NATURE (2018-2021) which follows on from ORIGINS and holds the intention to deepen and refine the quality of our direct embodied presence with ourselves, our clients and groups not to mention daily living. She has three children, four grandsons and two grand-dogs.
