Workshop Description

Brendan's class focuses on developing thoughtful, mature performers capable of making decisions within a specific movement structure. The class is targeted towards advanced students, and through its emphasis on personal investigation aims to facilitate different avenues of research and awareness of physical habits. Utilizing advanced improvisation tasks, students are asked to redefine their standards of "acceptable" shape and instead focus their effort to convey a more effective message. Class eventually culminates in the application of these fearless qualities to contemporary movement vocabulary and challenges students to find their own authorship within a choreographic blueprint.

Single Class: $25.00
Full Workshop: $100.00
