A time to listen, loosen, and locate memory, color, and strength
This workshop is open to anybody that wants to move, sound, remember, and listen.
My intention is to share an interdisciplinary practice rooted in traditions, practices, and methodologies of improvisation, dance, somatics, performance, preservation, sound composition, garment design, and cooking. We will start with a warm up—a mix of heat generating prompts to move, still, and rest. We will continue with movement, writing, and embodied sound scores shared from performance project, Salt and Spirit.

NEXT! Engagement Workshop - Storytelling & Movement-based Workshops. A creative engagement program by Pioneers Go East Collective. Designed for multigenerational people - the creative workshop focuses on performance and storytelling techniques, including movement practices, creative writing, and interview-based acting. The goal is to create a nurturing learning environment and build stronger bonds within the participants' community.
