Techni'ka

For over thirty years, Lēnablou has pursued her four passions simultaneously: performance, creation, teaching, and research. As a dancer, choreographer, and educator, she draws inspiration from the aesthetics of GWOKA, a traditional dance from Guadeloupe, and embraces an artistic approach deeply rooted in her Caribbean imagination. Lēnablou has developed Techni’Ka [both a contemporary syntax and methodology for teaching Gwoka] and the aesthetics of Bigidi, a dance of the harmony of disorder, which serves as the nurturing matrix of her choreographic writing.

In the short film Techni’Ka, Guadeloupean director Laurence Rugard captures the essence of Techni’Ka and Lēnablou’s research work in just ten minutes.
