About this Event

After years of dancing, creating, and performing together, Megan Lowe and Shira Yaziv join forces again to teach an exciting workshop focused on sharing and developing dynamic partnering skills. You can join us either day of the workshop, or both! 11/5 FUNdamentals of Dancing Together (Day 1, 10am-2pm): On Day 1 of this workshop, people of all experience levels are invited. We will explore a variety of intriguing improvisational scores that focus on giving and getting support when moving with others. Sensing, shifting, supporting, seeing, and being seen. 11/6 FLYING Together (Day 2, 10am-2pm): On Day 2 of this workshop, it is encouraged that movers already have experience in / excitement for dancing in contact with others and sharing weight together. Taking “FUNdamentals of Dancing Together (Day 1)” is a great way to get in the flow for “Flying Together (Day 2)”. You are welcome to come with a dedicated dance partner, or mix it up with those you are sharing space with for the day. We will dive into some of Megan and Shira’s favorite lifts, finding seamless ways of flowing into and out of them, followed by connecting these ideas through thrilling movement sequences. Moving on to contextualizing what we have explored during the day, we will spend time developing our own original movement ideas, and sharing them with each other.
