    Creative, Movement Artist, WriterBack2Basix
    London, United KingdomFreelance
    'Finding bent lines and broken paths, not possible choices and possible movement, journeys of apparent boredom, un?chosen twists and flowing inside a dreamy, absurd, worthy, unrealistic and bold game. ​ Going Back2Basix to forget what is meant to be, to find what can be, challenge what is ok, to be afraid of not bending...' B2B6 is run by twin sisters Leah & Marta Valverde We created Back2Basix to bring to reality working together and telling stories through dance, words and visuals in a simple, unusual and moving way. ​ We materialize this using the foundations and dance vocabulary of the styles we practice, connecting movement to human emotions and creative ideas and presenting them in twisted, unexpected ways to inspire new thoughts and vision. ​ We do this through dance videos, performance, choreography and movement direction. We also impart workshops for students of all levels and backgrounds in which we dive into devising methods and work on performance.
