A Cunningham-based class focusing on easeful alignment and movement.
A Cunningham-based technique class with an emphasis on moving with ease, efficiency and clarity. Focusing on alignment, breath and musicality, the class will progress from standing exercises for stability, strength and control, through to travelling movement sequences and jumps that encourage a dynamic use of the space. |
Jack WebbDiscover your flow, fall, your dancing in between the spaces.
Invite your body and mind to listen and say yes - yes to the rhythms, textures, qualities and sensations that rumble under the surface. Discover the movement language of the in between spaces of flow, fall and of the infinite space that opens up when we move from softness, listening and flow. |
Aya KobayashiCalligraphy - playing with texture and rhythms.
Inclusivity is at the heart of Aya’s practice, tons of imagery and simple descriptions to guide the group or individuals. We will explore the texture and rhythms of movement borrowing some idea of calligraphy and painting. Appreciating our physical resource and imagination fully, we will play with sense of volume in dances. |
Farah SalehWe will explore together ways to connect, expand and express through the sternum.
The workshop "Connect to expand and express" will explore the sternum's articulations, connections, and movement initiations. We will start from small somatic exercises, then move to bigger and dynamic ones, to finish with a dance phrase that integrates the established connections, while adding physical states to each movement. |

Providing the dancers with a new vocabulary that enhances their creativity, Marc redefines expectations of physicality for performers. |
