Valentin Tszin’s workshop is a precise yet poetic exploration of the body as a system of attention.
Through techniques drawn from butoh, physical theatre and martial arts, participants investigate how movement emerges not from force, but from awareness, impulse and the ability to hold several layers of perception at once.

The training develops poly-rhythmic attention, sensitivity to space, and the skill of letting the body speak through image, breath and internal logic.

It is designed for both professionals and newcomers — anyone seeking to expand their expressive range, sharpen their presence, and discover a movement language where discipline and subtlety meet.
