Overview of class

A practice-based laboratory that teaches skills to assist us in committing our full selves and living out every moment on stage with joy, authenticity, and courage. The course focuses on techniques that engage the body-mind connection such as Overlie's Viewpoints, experiential anatomy, Grotowski work, somatics, and approaches from contemporary social justice movements. Through independent and collaborative work, you will explore movement as a supporting technique for stage artistry.
