Deep Play Practices
Contemplative Dance Practice, 3-part series
with Damaris Webb
Wednesday August 2nd – Friday August 4th, 2:00 – 5:00 pm
Be Space @ Vibrant Studios, 1532 SW Jefferson Street
an urban retreat for the art tribe
Uncover a refreshing and holistic approach to arriving and becoming present within ‘the village’, rooted in contemplative awareness practices and the postmodern improvisational dance lineage.
Open to all humans interested in creative physical expression, this workshop is intended to support a wholesome way of being an artist in the world while strengthening our internal compositional eye, and is complementary to many styles of performance training. Yielding to deep play, we evoke our individual kinesthetic delight with an awareness of the group, showing us a path to manifesting spacious, confident and balanced improvisational expression.
Part One: The Four Postures of Mindfulness & Little Disciplines / parallel play
Part Two: solo forms / contemplative dance practice
Part Three: Red Square / contemplative dance practice
Space is limited, register in advance. Price valid through July 25.
$40 per session
