About Class:
The class is based upon contemporary dance explorations, which will draw on many workshops and practices Peter has developed in their choreography, such as “campaign for comfort”, “Is this it?”, “Questions only, no answers”, “Support being supported”, “rewrite my fire”, “reformulation” and “A felt sense of dance”. These practices all share a common thread of self exploration and ethical commitment to others. Through simple improvisation we examine and explore political, physical and ethical questions together. With a commitment to physical knowledge being equal to if not more essential than theatrical.
