Proximity, Focus & Mirroring
A Two-Page Introduction to Physical Storytelling

This free resource offers a concise entry point into Lynn Panting’s movement-based approach to storytelling.

Designed as a practical two-pager, it introduces three core physical tools: proximity, focus, and mirroring, and demonstrates how they shape relationship, intention, and clarity in performance. These tools form part of a larger ensemble-driven practice that integrates movement, text, and human connection.

Inside, you’ll find:

• A clear, accessible breakdown of three foundational tools

• Quick prompts you can bring directly into rehearsal

• A simple 5-minute structure for immediate application

• Flexible exercises adaptable to different bodies, spaces, and processes

This is a starting point. A way into the work.
