Open Day: Montreal

Share this event:

This gratis Open Day offers a comprehensive introduction to the Baseworks Method. It combines movement practice with theoretical insights that explore how perception and action are intertwined in daily movement patterns, influencing creative thinking and professional performance. Participants will discover approaches to raising body awareness and physical and cognitive skills that can transform both physical practice and creative problem-solving.

What to expect

Our Open Day offers an opportunity to connect with others interested in the intersection of movement, cognition, and professional development through direct interaction with Baseworks developers and group discussions.


Location/Venue

We’ve decided on Circuit-Est for our Open Day because it aligns with our initiatives for movement education and creative development. The space has supported movement research and artistic exploration for over 35 years, sharing our focus on education through practical experience. Like Circuit-Est, we value accessibility and meaningful learning experiences in movement awareness. Their environment provides an appropriate setting for introducing the Baseworks Method as an exploration of the intersection of movement and cognition, branching into perception and creative thinking.
