Wutao
Wutao is a contemporary movement art born from the fusion of a variety of different techniques: Qi Gong, Tai Chi, Yoga, dance, etc. The word “Wutao” comes from the union of two Chinese characters: “Wu” meaning “dance” or “awakening,” and “Tao,” meaning “the Way.”
The art of Wutao is based on building awareness of the primordial undulatory movement of the spine. This wave gets extended and amplified through the entire body, liberating the natural spirals that exist in all of our movements. As we breathe into this practice, Wutao becomes a dance, a physical calligraphy, in which deeper energetic and artistic pathways are revealed. Wutao was created in France by former Kung Fu world champion Pol Charoy and dance and yoga practicioner Imanou Risselard.
