Origen is a physical and mental training developed by Paco Ziel and Diana León with the aim of opening the senses, inhabiting the subjectivity of time, and improving stage performance. Through intimate listening and attention management, individual and collective latent forces are stimulated, bringing each participant closer to their own origin and to the origins of movement. The natural cycles are taken as trigger points to dive into the interconnectedness of life that surrounds us. The development of each person's own language of movement is encouraged, without imposing a specific aesthetic.

The class is designed progressively, starting from simple concepts to which layers are added until reaching a high level of complexity. Some of the aspects in which we work are: breathing, concentration, improvisation, agility, movement textures, floor work, contact work (partnering) and movement phrases. 

Origen has been shared at Springboard Danse Montreal, Transformation, Regroupement Québécois de la Danse, Domaine Forget, École de Danse Contemporaine de Montréal, École Supérieure de Ballet du Québec, École de Danse de Québec, El Entresuelo, Compañía Nacional de Danza (Mexico), and Centro de las Artes de San Agustín (Oaxaca).
