谢欣 / Xie Xin
Overview
谢欣 / Xie Xin is presented as a national first-class performer, contemporary-dance artist, and founder and artistic director of 谢欣舞蹈剧场.
Current Profile
In the episode, Xie Xin speaks from the overlapping roles of dancer, performer, and choreographer. Her practice links sustained physical training to inner attention: warming up does not merely increase range but reconnects brain, body, emotion, breath, and spirit. She describes choreography as organizing hidden relations across time, space, speed, information, and vibration, while her guided breathing exercise shows how releasing held tension can let outward motion arise from inward capacity.
Key Characteristics
- Maintains a daily movement practice that may require about an hour of warming, stretching, breathing, and coordination.
- Distinguishes the performing body’s experiential knowledge from the choreographer’s relational organization.
- Treats gravity, weight, contact, cooperation, music, and vibration as forms of bodily knowledge.
- Begins movement from inward breath, release, and support rather than copying an external shape.
- Supports international exchange while insisting that an artist needs an independent point of view.
