About this listen

 In this episode, celebrated UK choreographer and designer Theo Clinkard joins the show to discuss the vital intersection of physical movement and personal pleasure. Theo shares insights from his 20-year career dancing for the UK’s top choreographers and his transition into launching his own international dance company. This episode explores how societal expectations often pressure individuals to sacrifice their own joy for the sake of others, and why ‘owning your desire’ is a fundamental act of honesty. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many are conditioned to sacrifice personal pleasure to meet external expectations, but embracing what brings you joy is essential for honest living. Choosing to do what you want can often be viewed as being ‘unruly’, when in reality, it is a matter of personal integrity and honesty. Moving from a performer role to a creator/choreographer role requires a shift in how one approaches movement, theatre design, and international collaboration. High-quality contemporary work can be designed to be ‘affecting and visually arresting’ across various scales, from small studios to large international theatres like Sadler’s Wells. Leading residencies and workshops internationally (in countries like Chile, Cuba, and Australia) helps spread the practice of expression and sensuality through dance. BEST MOMENTS "Movement, pleasure and expression are important because we’ve been educated to sacrifice pleasure for living for others' expectations, as if it were a matter of honour." "It’d seem unruly to do what you want, but truth is: owning your desire is a matter of honesty." "Owning your pleasure is a matter of honesty." "Following 20 years dancing for some of the UK's most celebrated choreographers, Theo has built an international reputation for creating affecting and visually arresting contemporary work."
