Humphrey-Limón exploration workshop with Betty Jones & Fritz Ludin

Humphrey-Limón exploration workshop with Betty Jones & Fritz Ludin © Sokolow Ensemble

Based on the dynamic heritage of the Humphrey/Limón tradition, internationally renowned master teachers Betty Jones and Fritz Ludin transmit their own individual ways of dance. Having taught legions of dancers with ethnic and cultural diversities around the globe, their  curiosity inspires participants to search for their own individual roots. They conceive dance as poetry and an art form with Dionysian and Apollonian counterparts, where the sensation of weight versus suspension is being highlighted. Their mentor’s voices of the body, the experience of gravitational momentum, and breaching of barriers, will be an integral part of the workshop.
