Somatic practice supports us to intentionally connect with our physical bodies, emotions, minds, spirits and how we relate to the world outside us. This work can be incredibly useful for getting to know ourselves better, shifting habitual patterns, and creating a healing path. Most of the practice in this 7-week online class series will be in stillness, sometimes sitting, sometimes lying down, sometimes standing. This class is a great followup class for those who have taken Somatic Studies. All levels of experience are welcome.
Yoga and Strength is a 60-minute combination of Yoga Asana practice and Ballet Barre style strength training. This 7-week online class series will help you access strength without strain, while caring for and celebrating your body. This class requires a familiarity with yoga or contemporary dance and moves at a relatively fast pace.

This fall, winter and spring, we’ll gather about once a month for either a long weekend or full-week intensives. In these creative work periods, we welcome performers (dancers, actors, musicians), writers, composers, designers, dramaturgs — we’ll be approaching the material from all angles.

A brief introduction to Relational Intelligence in Contact Improvisation
This movement workshop will introduce dancers to body-based practices that rethink and retrain our relational skills through understanding how our embodied states influence our communicative impact and abilities.
Moving with the energies of Earth, Water, Air, Fire, and Ether we will cultivate these qualities in ourselves and our Contact Improvisation dances. Join us to deepen, in connection with self, other, and the living environment.
a land-based culture hub that incubates new performances, cultivates deep community and hosts transformational events.
