This workshop will be hosted by Fabienne Cellier-Triguel, soprano, and Christine Wahl, dance and tai chi teacher. The theme is "Psoas and inner pilgrimage". The objective will be to explore the psoas through a varied repertoire: Gregorian chant, Cantigas de Santa Maria and Llibre Vermell. The psoas muscle is a vital, postural and spiritual intersection and it allows an inner pilgrimage through breathing, walking and singing.
At the end of the workshop, a representation will take place in the rooms of the abbey (Friday, 23 October at 4PM).
