Horseplay
monthly movement workshop series on physical expression and embodiment

Through simple movement structures, partnering, solo exploration, and writing reflections we will deepen our connection between mind and body and the creative space within.

​

Learn to think on your feet, move from your gut, create compositions, respond to the moment and invent new worlds, all within community. Norms for establishing a safe container will be stated at the beginning of each session.

​

Open to everyone. Artists, dancers, musicians, athletes, writers, and creatives of all kinds are encouraged to attend. No prior experience necessary, all abilities welcome.
