About the Feminist Dance Workshops

This is an open-level workshop centred on jazz dance and musical theatre storytelling as a method.

Two days before the workshop you will receive the full Feminist Libretto to ‘sleep over‘ the story. The first half of the workshop is dedicated to establishing trust within the group, warming up and enjoying a strength training to help you get into your body. The second half introduces the libretto as we collectively explore the character through a deconstructed choreography with some elements of improvisation.

All participants commit to moving in a safe space, where dance is a communal process and success is defined through your own choices to embody the story. No prior dance experience is needed, though practicing dancers will enjoy the challenge that a higher level of nuance in both warm-up and choreography offers.
