Duncan Dance Workshop Series
July 17 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
The choreographic études of Isadora Duncan explore, through the action/rest continuum, the dynamic relationship between affiliation and solitude. Celebrating nature’s unity and rhythm, these dances, remembering ancient rituals and archetypes, are simultaneously earthly and divine. The indomitable human spirit, ever hopeful is present in this choreography and in all true healing. Isadora Duncan’s goal for the “the highest intelligence in the freest body”: that every living child might have available to them, the birthright of beauty, strength, and freedom.”

Isadora Duncan, the Mother of Modern Dance (1887-1927) sought movements that were expressive of the spirit. In the first decades of the 20th century, she won international acclaim, commanding attention from artists, scholars, and intellectuals on her tours through major cities of Europe, Russia, and the United states. Rejecting the toe shoes, courses, and gender stereotypes of ballet, she sought to clear the way for a dance of the future, one which would be not a diversion but a religion, an expression of life sounds life”.
