Butoh is a form of dance and performance art with roots in Japan's post-war avant-garde movement. It has since become a major tool for artists and performers across genres, to harness the energies of the body, the environment, and the universal mysteries of life.

Shakina Nayfack is a theatre director and third-generation Butoh artist, trained beneath the founder of Butoh Ritual Mexicano, Diego Piñón. His approach integrates traditional Japanese Butoh exercises with new, inter-cultural explorations in improvisation, guided meditation, text-based imagery and ensemble driven action.
