Order of Performance
January 6 and 13: Yield
Performer: Nicole PerryChoreographer: Nicole Perry
Move and Reflect:
January 20: Finding the Next
Move and Reflect:
We each have our own kinesphere. Yet, as we move through this experience together, the group creates its own kinesphere. Additionally, every living creature on earth shares the kinesphere of the earth. As we walk, oscillate your awareness between your personal space, group space, and world. How does your energy change with your perception? What do you notice in your body? What stories do you tell yourself?
January 27: Let it Go
Performer: Ricky MorisseauChoreographer: Nicole Perry with Ricky Morisseau
Move and Reflect:
Make a gesture or movement that means "letting go" to you. What do you let go of when you step into nature? What do you let go of when you step back into our urban, clock-time life? What do you need to let go, for your own peace?
