Class Description

Material Matters

 

Since the passing of Steve Paxton, I've been revisiting Material for the Spine, the movement technique Steve created re: sensations and architecture dancing with the body’s center, the spine. This work is elegant and useful for so many dance practices, certainly CI. I have been asking also,... what is missing? Together we will wonder, what are applications of a technique that match the environmental-social-collective matters we face here now today? We will visit some of the MftS practices and contextualize them through conversation, extending the movement, vibration, & breath.
