WAYS OF KNOWING
A descent into darkness, a cloud of unknowing, a startling revelation. A choreographic collage of methods for predicting the future.

"We confuse the asana for the yoga. The postures are not the yoga. It is the residue that the asana leaves in our nervous system, that state of presence." Judith Hanson Lasater
Something I've learnt in my mid 30s is never underestimate the power of lying flat on the floor for 15 mins. You don't need to try to sleep, or meditate, just close your eyes and lie there. It never fails to make me feel 10 x better๐
Something I'm enjoying about getting older is gradually finding my core values & orienting them towards shared horizons with others. I feel much less inclined to react to every little rocking of the boat, but to keep quietly steering a much bigger ship alongside others' efforts
The last week has been incredible for me. So much ๐ฅ dancing. It has felt very meaningful after PhD funding disappointment. It's reaffirmed to me that practice is where it's at & I have things of value to offer. Huge ๐ to all who danced with me at ID or ICA. Now a bit of rest โค๏ธ
Come and dance with me! I'm leading morning class at @ID__UK 12-16th June, looking at the relationship between the real and the imaginary using tricks and tools from the fields of magic, fiction, poetry, and divination.

I know it's not fashionable to specify professional level in experimental dance teaching these days, but I would love to lead a regular, advanced/pro, dance improvisation class somewhere. Somewhere for the dance nerds to get deeply weird on a regular basis.
Maybe this is very old school of me, but I basically never, ever, want to be in an auditorium watching a performance and be pulled out of the experience by the blue light of someone else's phone. It completely ruins it. I reckon we could be bolder in asking ppl not to do that!

Three weeks in one programme, no theme, no discipline. Sundays will be off.
