IMPROVISATIONAL DANCE
WITH JENNY FOOTLE
In this workshop we will find freedom in movement through a series of exercises to help you get into your
body and discover the art of dance. Sometimes it feels unsafe or just plain hard to use words to express what
we’ve experienced, and many have found how freeing it can be to physically move through things that words
cannot express. We hope you will begin to experience the healing effects of movement and begin to feel
like creative movement isn’t just for the trained and talented, you can access artistic expression through
dance no matter who you are or your background.
No previous dance experience is needed. If you are a trained dancer, you will also get a lot out of this workshop.
