BETWEEN EARTH AND SKY 2025

Nature always offers us a great lesson in the cyclical nature of life, the passage through
darkness that precedes a return to the light. By using dance as our main form of expression, we
honor the nature of which we are a part.
Dance reveals the magic of life, an uninterrupted flow of energy to which we belong. As we allow
it to flow, it surprises us at every moment.
Like all living beings we are connected to the earth and the sky, we are part of a whole. We
dance seeking the truth of the moment, the enchantment and the mystery, merging our breath
with that of nature.
Through the exploration of the body and inner listening, dance becomes a place where
emotions are born and transformations take place, a continuous dialogue between inside and
outside.
In this Nature Workshop, Maruska Ronchi introduces Butoh as a transformative dance, delving
deeply into personal identity, inner exploration, and a connection with natural elements. Through
acquiring the necessary skills and obtaining certification to teach JINEN Butoh under the
guidance of Master Atsushi Takenouchi, Maruska Ronchi effectively communicates the allure
and force of this art form, infusing it with her extensive contemporary dance background and
personal research. Participants will embark on a wonderful personal journey to discover their
personal distinctive dance. An extraordinary and unique experience.
