In this workshop, participants will explore the dynamic relationship between control, release, and creative spontaneity, understanding the body’s natural mechanics to cultivate precision without losing fluidity or expression. The practice draws on contemporary floorwork, acrobatic efficiency, partnering, and detailed movement explorations, offering a physically rigorous yet sensitive approach to training. Through structured improvisations, physical challenges, and technical tasks, participants are guided toward developing a broader and more comfortable personal movement language.

The workshop emphasizes the connection between intention and action, supporting participants in refining spatial awareness, articulation, and presence, while encouraging freedom within clear frameworks. Dancers are invited to take risks, explore their individuality, and transform the tools shared into expressive, dynamic movement.

Ideal for professional dancers and advanced movers, the workshop offers a space for growth, experimentation, and artistic discovery, integrating the body’s inherent knowledge with the mind’s creative impulses.

Lisard Tranis began his formal dance training at the Institut del Teatre in Barcelona, earning a Professional Degree in Contemporary Dance in 2014. That same year, he won first prize at the Certamen Internacional de Dansa de Barcelona with his solo Perceptions, which granted him a scholarship to study at Peridance Capezio Center in New York. He continued his development at Verve, the postgraduate performance company of the Northern School of Contemporary Dance (UK), where he received the Outstanding Postgraduate Achievement Award in 2015.

Since then, Lisard has performed internationally with renowned choreographers and companies such as Lali Ayguadé Company, Guy Nader & Maria Campos, Roser López Espinosa, Phoenix Dance Theatre, Hagit Yakira Dance, James Wilton Dance, and Cie. José Besprosvany, among others.

In 2021, he co-founded a dance theatre company alongside Clémentine Telesfort. Together, they create and perform original works while also receiving commissions from conservatoires, universities, festivals, theaters and professional dance training programs.

Beyond performance and creation, Lisard is deeply committed to teaching and artistic exchange. His pedagogical work includes leading workshops, movement labs, and creative residencies worldwide. He regularly teaches at professional dance companies, conservatoires, and multidisciplinary institutions, as well as at festivals and circus schools. His classes often focus on contemporary floorwork, acrobatic efficiency, partnering, and the development of authentic movement language. As a teacher, he is known for blending physical rigor with sensitivity, encouraging performers to explore both technical precision and expressive freedom.
