Registration for the general public opens on March 23.
This workshop will explore disorientation as dancing into liberation, release, wildness and joy. Drawing from mayfield’s practice of Improvising While Black or IWB the invitation is to bring all of you to the dance. We will practice arriving, falling, body surfing, catching spirit, riding waves, cosmic vocalizing, decomposing dance, deep belly laughter, and play. This is a practice of embracing the feral, and wild parts of ourselves. In the eye of collective societal storms, I will also invite participants into moments of movement solidarity, embodied interspecies singing and collective quietude. Disorientation is a release from all that holds us back. Are you ready to fall into the mystery?
What to expect:
Expect all out dancing, some raucous moments of loud singing but also extended meditative scores. There will be a nap space to celebrate rest as resistance.
