Each day will be structured with:
- Warm up/class
- Structured improvisation/investigation/solo practice - how we “research” our physicality through prompts and ideas
- Research - Each participant is asked to bring in ideas they are researching or interested in developing. They will use their iPhones, tablets or computers to explore further how to deepen the research and move it into “embodiment”
- Structural Concepts/Finding Form - we will explore different structural approaches to choreographic development
