What is home for you?
In this class, the aim is to cultivate an environment for play, awareness, and embodied curiosity.
This movement practice aims to cultivate “ease of being” through building structures of familiarity for curiosity to emerge from.
This time spent together is crafted to encourage individual agency and exploration through the offerings of improvisational structures, creative practice, community connection, and phrase work.
All are welcome - come make yourself at home.

In Support of Core Dance
For four decades, Core Dance has supported innovation, collaboration, artistic risk-taking and sustainable art-making in dance. An award-winning contemporary dance organization with global reach, Core Dance creates, performs, and produces compelling original dance that ignites the creative spirit and actively encourages participation and conversation with the community. In 1980, Core Dance was co-founded in Houston, Texas by dancer and choreographer Sue Schroeder and her sister, Kathy Russell. Five years later, the organization added Atlanta, Georgia as a second home base, creating a platform for dance that is relevant in both cities and around the globe. Core Dance uses dance to educate, question and illuminate, and is internationally recognized for its artistically driven research practices, cross-cultural and multi-disciplinary collaborations, the humanity of the individual Dance Artists, and its rigorous physicality.
