DANCE RESPONSE
How do we understand the experience of the things we read in the daily news? When we read about violence and crime in the newspaper, we rarely imbibe the depth of those experiences. Let's explore movement and physical space to find a bridge between us and a remote account of violence done to an unknown person. While using our bodies to respond, we will find ourselves engaging with reality at an extremely personal and significant level. And we will learn to release it all into a form of healing through the language of dance.

Workshop Day off: Sunday 26 May
