Alesandra Seutin invites participants to share in the lived experience of her movement practice. Living in the Movement reveals, through the body in motion and voice in action, how listening to sensory perception becomes both a foundation and a dynamic entry point into choreography.
This danced session demonstrates how posture, spinal fluidity, and musicality guide the performer toward presence, rooting movement from the inside out. The integration of voice as a natural extension of the moving body, allows sound and emotion to emerge from physical sensation, making the dancer both mover and vocal vessel.
Through this immersive and rhythmic exploration, Alesandra offers insight into the core of her research: developing a body that is conscious, available, structured yet free; a body capable of responding fully to music, space, and impulse.
Alesandra Seutin (Belgique)
Alesandra Seutin is a choreographer, performer, and director whose distinctive multidisciplinary approach weaves together movement, text, and music to explore identity, memory, and the politics of the body. Her artistic journey has led her from performing in numerous international productions to creating her own company, Alesandra Seutin (formerly Vocab Dance), in 2007. Through this platform, she has built a diverse body of work, earning acclaim for her poetic, politically engaged pieces that interrogate notions of power, belonging, and place. Deeply committed to teaching and transmission, Alesandra trained at Trinity Laban Conservatoire and Middlesex University in London before immersing herself in the Acogny Technique in Senegal, under the guidance of Germaine Acogny. Today, she is recognised as a worldwide ambassador and teacher of the technique, regularly invited to lead masterclasses across Europe, Africa, and beyond. Alesandra has led projects as Guest Artistic Director of the UK’s National Youth Dance Company (2019–2021) and Co-Artistic Director of Ecole des Sables in Senegal (2020–2024). She has received over 20 commissions from international institutions including Sadler’s Wells, KVS Brussels, and Phoenix Dance Theatre. She is currently a face of KVS, Brussels and an Associate Artist at Sadler’s Wells, London. Seutin was also awarded the Golden Afro Artistic Award for Dance & Choreography in Belgium in 2023.
