The Child as a Teacher – Part 2
Dance in the early years of life is a powerful developmental experience. In this workshop we will share stories, ideas, practices and applications/games to support and expand possibilities in child-led curriculum. Join us in conversation and movement that supports us in creating safe and nurturing dance environments that allow each child to bring their whole selves, with their own desires, knowledge, and joy.
April 21: NW In Practice with Lili Robinson & Veronique West
Bodyminds in Space: Principles of Trauma-Informed & Anti-oppressive Practice – Part 2
Join the facilitators as they offer discussion, sharing, and writing in a workshop that gives us space to reflect on our current facilitation approaches, our relationship to bodymind “norms”, and accessibility practices for mental health. In this follow-up to “Body-Minds in Space: Part 1”, we will focus on case studies (example situations) and a deeper dive into trauma-informed accessibility. You do not need to have attended “Part 1” to attend “Part 2.” By narrowing the scope and discussing specific real-life situations, “Part 2” aims to provide more practical tools and strategies, along with broader concepts.

Producing Your Own Show – Where to start and what you need to know.
For many choreographers, becoming your own producer can be stressful. There is a lot of conflicting information flying around about the details of that role or knowing what expenses you should expect when you are self-producing. This session is intended to help demystify all this by addressing the basics of producing a show. Bring your questions and join Associate Producer, Linda Blankstein for an informal info session.
