NOTE: Drop-ins are welcome! Each class stands alone as a dynamic movement experience and full-body workout, while the full series offers the opportunity to deepen your artistic practice and perform in an original collaborative piece. BUT!! If you would like to perform, you must commit to the entire series.
This workshop invites artists of all levels into a rigorous, unfettered creative laboratory where physical training meets artistic inquiry. Fueled by an eclectic, soulful playlists, each class is equal parts workout, moving meditation, improvisation and performance practice.
Rather than learning choreography, participants explore improvisation, inventive movement scores, and collaborative composition to unlock imagination, deepen storytelling, and cultivate their distinct stage presence.
Drawing on over 20 years of developing her interdisciplinary dance-making methodology, Klaymoon guides artists to discover their authentic voice. Rooted in courageous play, ensemble building, and multidisciplinary storytelling, the workshop also offers development in spoken word, theatrical expression, and optional reflective journal exercises outside of rehearsal for artists interested in a holistic approach to creative practice.
