FLUID FORMS

finding direction through disorientation

In this 1-day workshop we will dive into some of our favorite principles of aquatic dance and contact improvisation. We will learn how to release, dissolve, and regather while finding the interplay between stability and fluidity. We will offer tools for developing adaptability, expanding sensitivity, and practicing fluid integrity both in a 97° pool and on land.
