Levi Gonzalez - Summer MELT 2014 Intensives

LEVI GONZALEZ: Practice Making

3:30-6pm July 28-August 1 $140

"This workshop considers composition not as a craft that can be taught but as a space that we can create together, sharing each other's resources and knowledge, and engaging with the process of making dance as an individual and collective practice. We will reflect on how we engage with being present in our making, moving and thinking in an effort to listen to and uncover our underlying reasons for dancing. We will examine how we arrive at form, perhaps expanding our notions of what form can be. This will be done through a series of structured exercises and conversations that challenge ownership, aesthetic preference, commitment and the practical issues surrounding dancemaking. Please bring a notebook."

MELT Intensives are a series of daily workshops in technique, somatics, improvisation, composition that provide an opportunity to engage with some of the most innovative artists in the field of dance today. Register online in advance.
