Morning Class with Stuart Singer

T Th 10am-12pm

MR@Danspace Project

131 E. 10th St.

Inside of improvised scores and learned movement sequences, we will cultivate and interrogate strategies for dancing. We will observe how we engage with material, and what we notice about our engagement will also become material. We will consider functionality and expressivity. We will dance together and for one another.
