My type of movement...

Just wanted to expose you to this amazing fusion of street dance and contemporary ballet that truly inspires me and makes me want to wiggle:)

some beautiful moving.

hey everyone,

I have a feeling this is going to be one of many posts i put on here with some movement stuff that inspires me. this is a solo from pina bausch's "vollmond" by dominique mercy. all of her pieces were developed collaboratively with the dancers. in class, i find myself finding deep relations to my own emotional/physical/visceral impulses as i move. outside of knowing that pina bausch's pieces are developed collaboratively through personal stories from the dancers, their impulses, etc., i think this is a great example of how working in our way can be made into amazing, understated, beautiful work.



bless bless,

sam

who is that bloodied man?

Please listen with your whole self: he speaks in a way that moves beyond the rational plane of isolated intellect....
