About this Event
CLOSE
a workshop to explore partnering without touch. cultivate attention, intimacy, trust, and respect through focus on the space between bodies.
We will start with a light guided individual warmup, then start to work in pairs. No partner required--we will rotate partners throughout. If time allows, we will attempt to build a collective moving sculpture.
All are welcome, no prior dance/movement experience required. Please reach out with access needs so we can be prepared.
Hosted by Gavin + NiFe
