Be/ing together + Work/ing together- contemporary technique/s:
this class is a highly imaginative, highly physical investigation of ourselves as movers. Together we cultivate a safe space for building community, imagination, risk and rigor by embracing kindness, inclusivity and learning. We work from the body we bring each day, and we are invited to call upon all the techniques and herstories/theystories/histories that we hold. Class begins with a sensation-based collage of improvisation and set material, rooted in the fundamentals of release technique and postmodern dance. We nurture our technique and curiosities through set sequences, improvisation scores and composition games. Class culminates with a set-ish phrase that calls upon desires we have found together, while also challenging us physically and creatively.
this is a safe space for all humans. all levels welcome. come get what you need.
my teaching practice is influenced by continued lessons from mentors/teachers/friends - Kendra Portier, Michelle Boulé, Jennifer Nugent, Joanna Kotze, Samita Sinha, Miguel Gutierrez, John Jasperse, Anna Sperber, Yanira Castro, Janet Panetta, Lisa Race
