My thanks to you all for being open to taking part in something so experimental! This workshop has been a long time coming, and represents some of the most important self-learning I have done & continue to do in this lifetime 😌 It’s an honor to share that with you all and I truly hope you take away something sustainably useful from the experience. The purpose of this workshop is to offer the space / encourage the possibility of moving in ways that your body usually does not (even though it can!) I hope and expect to be just as surprised as you by what we discover given more time x space than the average day affords. We’ll be playing around with exercises and activities that draw from: - Dance - Improv - Injury rehab - Functional movement techniques - Meditation - A smattering of strange poetry… Building on this^ foundation, themes guiding the workshop include: - Slowness - Curiosity - Arcs, curves, spirals - Breath - Plant thinking - Metaphor - Gravity & grace - Rhythm - and play!! Exploration rather than performance, no background in anything required except being a human bean 🙂 ———————— 👋 2:15-2:30: come in, set down your things, say hello to friends old & new 🌀 2:30-4:00pm: workshop! 💭 4:00-4:30pm: informal and optional discussion/reflection - simply a chance to share any thoughts with each other before stepping out into a different space ———————— Cost: your time is precious enough, won’t ask more than that 🙏 Location: 3rd Floor Dance Studio Harvey Milk Center for the Arts 50 Scott St, San Francisco, CA 94117 The front desk will point you upstairs to the studio, there’s also an elevator. What to wear/bring: - Clothes you can move in comfortably - Socks (barefoot or socks in the studio, whichever you prefer) - Waterbottle (yay hydration)
