Our bedroom or apartment has become the stage to dance, move, and work with the body. It can be shared with other virtual mates and expanded, or just experienced in its intimacy. I asked Anouk Froidevaux, a gorgeous contemporary dancer, choreographer and Gyrokinesis therapist, to tell me about her experience in readjusting her work with the body and her Gyrotonic and healing treatments to the current situation, which implies the use of online platforms. Dancing the Moment, for example, is a workshop in which she guides a community of dancers and non-dancers to improvise movements in a real or virtual space, in order to reconnect with themselves and to nurture an environment of trust.

Even if virtual reality is responding surprisingly fast to some of our needs of gathering, for her, there remains an open question: how can technology assist us in recreating the feeling of being present with one another and of connecting to others through the physical touch which is so important for our wellbeing and personal development?
