Shoshana Green

Shoshana Green is a Butoh and movement artist, teacher, curator and presenter for Butoh Programming in San Francisco. Her programming is dedicated to the appreciation, education and contemporary movement of the Butoh art-form by offering public workshops and performances through collaborations with International and National Butoh Artists. 

Shoshana sees movement as a continuous process of transformation. Through listening and moving from subtle impulses with concentration and awareness we discover and explore creative unpredictable movement from our organic human experience. Classes are supportive and allow us to start with our present moment experience enabling us to begin again with a renewed sense of curiosity and appreciation for the unknown. We can lean into an expression that comes from the stream of our lives, our bodies and a wider conscioussness. Shoshana sees Butoh as a mirror that reflects the full spectrum of our feelings, experiences and ways we have been influenced by our social context. Movement exploration is an opportunity to integrate and own lost parts of ourselves through the gateway of our bodies.
