Anatomy Through Movement
Thursday 12, Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 July

Anatomy Through
Movement
A movement workshop inspired by Leonardo's
extraordinary anatomical studies and led by award-winning theatre
company the Clod Ensemble. In this gentle, meditative movement
class, you will identify the key anatomical landmarks of your own
body - making connections between Leonardo's two-dimensional
anatomical maps and your own flesh and bones.
No experience necessary, people of all
movement abilities welcome. Please wear comfortable clothing.
Led by Suzy Willson and Leon Baugh of the Clod
Ensemble.
Developed with the help of Professor Susan Standring, Editor of
'Gray's Anatomy'.

Clod
Ensemble create performance projects, workshops and
events across the UK and internationally. Recent productions
include 'Under Glass' (2009), which took place in a series of glass
containers and jars, 'Must', a collaboration with legendary New
York performer Peggy Shaw, and 'An Anatomie in Four Quarters'
(Sadlers Wells, 2011). They also create projects and
curate work in places where art does not usually happen. The
groundbreaking ‘Performing Medicine’
project uses the arts to help medical students and doctors gain
skills relevant to their clinical practice, as well as curating
workshops and events for the general public.
Suzy Willson is Artistic
Director of Clod Ensemble. She has directed all of their
productions to date and leads the company's 'Performing Medicine'
project. She is also an Honorary Senior Lecturer at Barts and the
London School of Medicine and Dentistry.
Leon Baugh is an Associate
Artist on the 'Performing Medicine' project. He has been an
international touring dancer for ten years, working with companies
such as Jasmin Vardimon and Hofesh Shechter. More recently he has
moved into choreography for theatre, winning an Olivier Award for
his work on 'Suckerpunch' at the Royal Court Theatre.
