Dive into Nicole von Arx's creative process in NVA & Guests' three-hour workshop called Worldbuilding on June 29th from 11am-2pm. We will use our proximity to the floor and each other to warm up. Elements of yoga, floor-work, and calisthenics will be used to emphasize mind-body connections and safe partnering techniques for engaging in challenging and virtuosic movement within the group. Through tactile feedback and responsive engagement, dancers will gain creative tools to expand their movement vocabulary and build trust with each other.
Nicole will also share elements of the company's current repertoire, theatrics, and text work. Towards the end of the workshop, these will be used to build a loose improvised score. Participants will be encouraged to react, respond, and lead with movement and their voice.
The studio will be available for an extra 30 minutes at the end (until 2.30pm) so dancers can cooldown and connect.
This workshop is designed for professional dancers interested in diving into NVA & Guests' creative process.
No audition is required. We recommend early registration as space is limited.
