WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
This workshop will be divided into two parts. It will provide participants with a warm-up class focused on different materials from floor work to release techniques. Elements from the warm-up will be analysed, deconstructed and practiced. The second part will provide a creatively charged environment for participants to move together through group practice where individuals will create their own material.
