11am-1pm

A ballet based warm-up will be given at 10:45am.

Stage 7’s new Pas de Deux Lab will explore principles of partnership from contemporary ballet backward toward classical ballet techniques.

Movement problems will explore the following:

• How do we communicate with weight?
• What perceptual skills support effective collaboration in dance?
• What makes the space between us dynamic and useful?
• How can we harness principles of leverage and displacement to share power?

Expect an experimental, experiential approach!

Expect to have fun!!

Class will be conducted with guidance and direction from Kathryn Irey.

Through the practice of Asana and the coordination of intention, breath and movement, we will balance strength and suppleness in our form and cultivate a non-judgmental attitude toward our body.

Lead by Justin Morrison

7-9pm

Weekly sessions will provide structure and practice in improvisation, and will develop perceptual skills crucial to ensemble performance.

Through experimentation, dialogue and guided exercises, dancers will investigate the impact of actively seeing and hearing while moving.

Classes will emphasize:

• Noticing the impact of “feeling” states in performance.
• Recognizing ones personal, choreographic “ethic”.
• The use of choice in creating a collaborative Instant Composition.

Open to dancers from all disciplines.

Drop-ins welcome but continued attendance is encouraged.

"Movement is produced by the rapport of odd elements, of the contrasts of colors between themselves which constitutes Reality." -Robert Delaunay
