Workshop with Michael Figueroa

Dance workshop with Michael Figueroa, Director of Ruckus Dance

The class will consist of set exercises for muscular engagement and coordination, high kicks, across-the-floor improvisations (guided or task-based), learning of phrase material, and some floor work. The class is designed to activate and develop intuitive/instinctual decision-making skills when moving through forms and disciplines, improve recall of long movement phrases, and instill a desire to take risks. Through repetition, we interrogate action and sweat. I encourage you to treat choreography as improvisation and improvisation as choreography. Class is recommended for people with a general movement practice or two years of dance experience. $15-25 sliding scale.
