This class is a playful and provocative step into my recurring dance nightmare: I am put onstage with a dance company in front of hundreds of people, and everyone except me knows the choreography. We will draw from that fear and learn how to use forgetting to our advantage. I will introduce improvised scores and memory games and choreographic tools that ask us to make something out of our disjointed memories. We will also employ weight, tension, rebound, speed, and rigor. We will make complex choreographies from empty beginnings. We will find new ways to be brave in a scary field.
What to expect: There will be a combination of improvisation exercises and phrase work, with heavy emphasis on taking your own approach to both. This is an open level class, but some dance background is encouraged.
