Workshops with Alice Cummins
Dancing & improvising with Alice Cummins
Two–hour classes to dance, play, experiment and compose. Beginning with a practice of attunement through somatic awareness, these classes will: generate original ways of moving; refine technique; develop sensitivity, awareness and relationship to space. We will privilege the moving articulate body in the practice of solos, duets, trios and group improvisations. In a rigorous yet generative environment you will accumulate skills that inform decision making in the moment-by-moment composing that is improvisation, recognizing moments of serendipity, those ‘split seconds of paradise’ as we create meaning that suggests itself through the dancing and spatial relationships.
Alice’s work offers dancers, physical theatre performers and movement artists unique approaches to technique, composition and improvisational performance.
