About this Event

Ready to swim like pod of dolphins?! I am abundantly excited to share one of my favorite practices - Dolphin Dance, aka Water Contact Improvisation. I will be sharing fundamentals I learned in Mexico with a group called Ocean Dance. This is a learning playshop with improvisational jam! This is a practice like no other that feels to me like floating in a cosmic womb - it is both invigorating & deeply restorative. Only 12 spots. Register today to reserve your space in the pod! https://www.embodywithtrish.com/event-details/dolphin-dance-at-dormont-pool Our Practice will begin on land, finding our flow and mobility through guided & improvisational movement - solo, partner, group - always according to your interest and comfort. Then we will begin to sprout our fins & gils and find our way to Dormont pool to play with solo, partner and community movement practices in the water! Location: We will meet at Dormont Park - Entrance near the intersection of Annapolis Ave & Dormont Ave. Larger parking lot at Pool - about an 8-10 min walk. Pool admission is $8. Please bring your goggles & nose clips or masks if you have them - I will bring extra cheap nose clips to sell. Also, if you are a bubble blowing pro and can comfortably dive & swirl with a free nose - go for it! But you will want to be able to see for everyone's safety, so goggles or mask are strongly encouraged. Time and interest permitting we can also experiment with a little supported floating of one another, sometimes called "aguahara" Stay tuned for part 2: Wild Vitality in August - a longer day dolphin dance & land mobility immersion with a private pool a little bit outside of Pitsburgh Please get your gils ready and DM with any questions! I am SO excited to move & swim with you! #dolphindance #watercontact #watercontactimprovisation #mobility
