Breath, Water, Memory: a vocal workshop for dancing bodies and bodies of water
This workshop will focus on moving the body and breath to move the voice. We start with the breath, we dive deep into the expansiveness with movement and voice supported by breath. The invitation is to create soundscapes that awaken and expand the scope dancing while also vocalizing or vice versa. We will play with nuanced sounding, listening, and moving with the element of water as our guide. There will also be an optional visit to Rockaway Beach to continue this practice of dancing with breath, water and memory.
What to expect:
Participants can expect an exploratory approach to vocal work and improvised dance. There will be some writing and optional readings. If the class agrees we will visit the ocean as an optional field trip to deepen this practice.
