In this conversation with choreographer and performer Arawana Hayashi we explore the dynamic transformational possibilities of social presencing theater; bringing experience into expression, moving as a social body, harnessing social presence and speaking in shapes.

Arawana Hayashi’s pioneering work as a choreographer, performer and educator is deeply sourced in collaborative improvisation. She currently heads the creation of Social Presencing Theater (SPT) for the Presencing Institute. Working with Otto Scharmer and colleagues at the Presencing Institute, she brings her background in the arts, meditation and social justice to creating “social presencing” that makes visible both current reality and emerging future possibilities. Her recent book, Social Presencing Theatre is available now.
