body/material is a dramaturgy of dances, where dance is intended primarily as a movement of attention and a technology of ecstasy, done both "alone together" and 'together together'. body/material invites the participants to tune into the subtle body, through breathing and pulsating the connective tissues and slow activations, drawn from functional anatomy and Qi circulation techniques. Every day the focus is brought to a system (eg. technology of breath, heart center, gravity dynamics) to allow for this to grow into explorations or dances and dance/performance play. The class dynamic evolves from somatic tuning and awareness into a playground for a polymorphous and joyful dance experience. A brief embodied framework on consent is offered, as we gather as temporary collaborators in a 'brave' space, where through dancing as a form of non- normative or ordinary behavior, we take risks as we open and re-shape our body/mind.
