Fazendo os espetáculos pelas estradas afora, comecei a perceber que precisávamos poder estabelecer outras formas de comunicação com o público: formas de conhecimento, de troca de experiência. Precisávamos de uma escola. Nesta escola queremos pensar movimento, experimentar movimento, disciplinar, conscientizar, respirar e sensibilizar o corpo que pensa, muda, sente; que dança. Sempre acreditei na criatividade e irreverência. A concentração, disciplina, formação e o foco são a base e a possibilidade criativa de qualquer indivíduo.
A escola oferece cursos em todas as áreas relacionadas ao movimento, além das aulas de teatro, filosofia, anatomia, história da dança e eventos como exposições de artes visuais, leituras e recitais de música, integrados a dança num esforço de ampliar o horizonte dos nossos alunos.
Todo mês de janeiro e julho o Centro de Movimento Deborah Colker inclui em sua grade uma colônia e cursos especiais. A intenção da colônia de férias é ser uma escolinha de arte, oferecemos diversas atividades corporais integradas ao teatro, a dança, a música e as artes plásticas.
