Saturday Sampler with Beth Gill

 
Saturday, August 14th at 10:30am-12pm
​
DESCRIPTION:
Saturday Sampler is an outdoor workshop for professional movement based artists that draws from my choreographic practice and current curiosities. Come explore my own approaches to composition, performing and improvisation, find something you like and take it with you! Experiments will include: 
- Integrating our inner and outer dancer through visualization 
- Examining our relationship to choreography 
- Accessing an intuitive approach to composition

At 40 years old she has produced six commissioned evening length works met with critical acclaim.
