Show Info!

 We are ready to announce 3 performances of KINesphere!

When: Thursday, December 30 at 12pm, 2pm and 4pm

Where: The Lake Observation Trail of the Anne Kolb Nature Center (this trail is ADA accessible).

How to get tickets: The Nature Center is free and open to the public! So is our show! However, we are asking people RSVP via Eventbrite, so we know that you can get a good view. Additionally, if you choose a Donation Ticket on Eventbrite, the proceeds will be split between the dancers and the Love the Everglades Movement. We are really excited to be supporting this Indigenous-led work to preserve the health of our South Florida ecosystem. 

Funding for the project is provided in part by the Broward County Board of County Commissioners as recommend by the Broward Cultural Division.

Joanna in Rehearsal

 Here is a clip of Joanna's solo as she explores air- birds, butterflies, ideas, inspiration. 

Ann Kolb Nature Center is the location of KINesphere!

 We are beyond excited to be using the beautiful, and accessible (free and ADA compliant) Anne Kolb Nature Center Lake Observation Trail for our performance. Show info is coming Tuesday!

These are some "on location" photos from today, working out the endings of some of the choreography. 

Yasmin in Rehearsal

 Yas is exploring water and fluidity- and all that goes along with it. Sometimes it is a soft rain. Sometimes it's a raging sea. She is incorporating these movement qualities with ideas of pain and suffering, as an embodied Gaia, or Mother Earth. 

Stay tuned for show details!

Movement Explorations

 Now that we are in the thick of rehearsals, most of my movement time is spent specifically exploring phrases I can add to the solos we are creating. Here are two from this week. 

Rehearsals in Progress!

 Here is a sneak peek of Ricky in rehearsal! For his piece we are working with ideas of Trees and the Tree of Life: Roots, Ancestry, his Haitian lineage, Support, Groundedness, Growth. 

Movement Explorations

 More bamboo movement. I loved hearing the creaking of the bamboo in the wind and the hollow thunk that the stalks make as they come into contact with each other. 

That day in the arboretum was very breezy. That is what inspired this phrase. 

And a bit of noodling using the leaves as accompaniment and playing with lines v. curves.
