About The Artist:
Undercurrent is a Seattle-based dance project directed by Hilary Grumman and nurturing floorwork technique, experiential design, immersive performance, and care-centered community building.
Drawing on training with international practitioners, and 11 years of personal floorwork research, Hilary has been guiding Undercurrent classes since 2017. After earning her BFA from CalArts, mentored by Maggie Nelson and Anthony McCann, she pursued floorwork training in Piso Móvil, Flying Low, Psico-Físico, RUBBERBAND, Jorge Crecis, Ihsan Rustem, Moving Air, Duela-Cemento, A Surprised Body, CONTINUUM, and Austrian Parkour. Weaving these methods into her own investigations, she has cultivated a fluid and injury-preventative approach to getting low. Hilary has brought Undercurrent to the University of Washington, Cornish College of the Arts, SFD+I, Fremont Abbey, Velocity Dance Center, Spectrum Dance Theater, and Bodies of Empowerment SF, as well as hosted workshops with Ground Grooves, Lavinia Vago, Harald Stojan, et al. Commissions include new works for Sessions in Place, The Round, Ode at Mini Mart City Park, Kaylee Elizabeth, CO—, Starbucks, and more.
About The Workshop:
Undercurrent offers a deep dive into the vigor, mechanics, and efficiency of floorwork technique. In this pop-up session, participants will be guided in a constant stream of sequences, each using the architecture of the body to make progressively challenging movement smooth, strategic, strengthening, and sustainable. As the flow gathers momentum, these foundations will grow into more complex patterns, inversions, tricks, and phrasework.
