About - Roseta Plasencia

PERFORMING ARTS MAKER · MULTIDISCIPLINARY ARTIST · MOVEMENT COACH

My interest in movement, training, pedagogy and the stage have led me to develop
my work in an integrative way, combining the stage world with the pedagogical one. I
understand the different performing arts, disciplines and methodologies as tools in
service of artistic expression, teaching, personal and professional growth.

NOWADAYS

I co-direct the company Fil d’Arena Dansa-Teatre, together with my colleagues Clara Crespo, Isabel Abril and Irene Ballester.

I develop my Train&Play workshops in different Spanish cities as well as abroad.

I work as a performer for other theater and circus companies, such as Cía. Ferroviaria and La Finestra Nou-Circ.

Accompany creation processes as a choreographic assistant for performing arts companies. I develop creations on demand for dance and circus training centers.

I’m a Co-founder of CREAT, a space for training and creation of Circus Arts. I teach regular training at Creat and at the AVC, Valencian Circus Association.

I currently develop streaming training programs on different platforms. I do personalized training and online coaching.

MOVEMENT as a main guide of life

Dance and movement as a universal language where age, origin, social, cultural, or ideological differences do not matter

The different artistic disciplines at the service of scenic expression

The body as an expressive element that transits states, images, concepts, emotions

A permeable body as a transmission tool for own and collective discourse

Train&Play workshops as an experience that brings together professionals from various disciplines to share, generate, learn

Movement as the main focus of action

The creative process as a space for thoughts, which allows us to unleash our curiosity, where there are no absolute beliefs and everything is questionable

Community dance as a means of communication that generates shared artistic experiences

Work teams as ephemeral families that put their best skills at the service of culture

Movement culture as a transmitter of values and healthy habits

The stage act as a means of communication with society

Collective creation as a transformative experience, of learning and personal and collective growth

The performing arts as a means of expression, which link our socio-political reality with the concerns that arise as a collective

Each training workshop as an opportunity to generate links, networks, communication channels, between people and the arts

"TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE AT THE SERVICE OF THE STAGE PROPOSITION"

TRAIN&PLAY My own work method from different disciplines

Years of experience in circus, dance and education have led me to develop training programs based on transdisciplinarity which I call Train&Play. In these programms i investigate mouvement around acrobatics, contemporary dance, animal movement, handstands, partnering and physical preparation, nurturing and applying the tools of some disciplines to others.

With my Train&Play workshops I have visited Chile, Belgium, France, Italy, Switzerland… In Spain, cities such as Barcelona, Madrid, Granada, Bilbao, Santiago and Zaragoza. On a local level, different Train&Play workshops have been held in Valencian centers such as the Professional Conservatory and Conservatory of Dance, APDCV training cycles at the Rialto Theater, Dynamic Club, or Botanic Espai de Dansa, amongst others.
