Excited to have Brian Solomon bring us an Indigenous Contemporary Workshop that aims to turn on all of the body’s senses, discovering a state from which the body can move that is ‘awakened’. This ‘awakened-state’ is the place from which our bodies are intended to move.

Let Jasmyn Fyffe take you through some phrase building contemporary! Through guided improvisational techniques, create tasks from movements to create from what has already been created. Getting the juices flowing and creating a basis for the creation of new material. Bio on site!

Join Emily Cheung for Wa indigenous dance workshop! This Chinese folk dance is located in the rainforest of South East Yunnan, China. A unique dance style using their hair to dance. The movements are grounded and big with wooden drum percussion. It is very energetic and powerful.
