Fluid Architecture
This workshop focuses on dynamic yet easeful, whole-body awareness as we dance in contact improvisation. We begin with exploring our solo dance and how we can fluidly move our skeletal architecture in three-dimensional space. From there we move into contact with a focus on the moment-to-moment organizing of our skeleton in relationship with our partner’s. From this foundation we will explore effortless transitions in and out of the floor as well as dynamic support for flying. We will play with modulating tone and tempo to enhance more flow in communication and nuanced expression.

Rooted in the United States capital, Washington D.C., Dance Place supports movement artists by creating opportunities for creative development, performance, and education. By investing deeply in artists and centering those who have been systemically excluded from such opportunities, we strengthen the dance field.

Starting in 2022 the DC Contact Improv Sunday jam has been holding a class and jam weekly at Dance Place, as part of their adult class schedule.
