Moving Meditation: Attention, Space, Endurance, and Hip Articulation with Djibril Sall
This series of workshops explores movement as a form of meditation by training attention through the body, space, relational awareness, and endurance. Participants are guided through slow floor-to-standing warm-ups, spatial orientation exercises, group navigation tasks, and sustained hip articulation practices. The workshop emphasizes clarity, choice, and duration, making it accessible to participants with varied movement backgrounds. Previous movement experience is helpful but not required. Participants are encouraged to work at a self-determined pace and level of intensity.
Djibril Sall is a queer Senegalese performer, choreographer, and writer whose work sits at the intersection of racialized migration, belonging, and in-betweenness. Born in Dakar and raised in a working-class family in the Deep South of the United States, his practice is shaped by movement across classed, racialized, and geopolitical borders. Drawing from his own migration history, he asks how trauma might become a departure point for pleasure, disclosure, letting go, and open-hearted connection.
