The Zen Art of Improvisation

Advance class

Improvisation has become a staple of the dance world. It is used as a tool for creating, a measure of ability and utilized by most current choreographers somewhere in their process or work on stage. The act of improvising is often intimidating and challenging; as you must listen, reaction, make choice and stay full present in the movement all at once. The class begins by going through our habitual movements, without judgement to find what bring us joy then examining our patterns to find counterpoints to the cliché actions in order to discover new and exciting ways of moving while honor our personal aesthetics and technique.
