Class Description: Class will focus on movement research through improvisation and phrasework. We will explore elements of release, floorwork, and guided somatic practices, finding greater fullness and nuance in our movement. Movers will be invited to be curious, unlock freedom in our joints and our decision-making, and enjoy the gift of dancing together.
MAEVE FRIEDMAN (she/her) is a SLC freelance artist originally from Maryland and Maine. Her dancing perspective is informed by her time at UNC School of the Arts, SALT2 Contemporary Dance Company, Bates Dance Festival, and notably, her time spent not dancing. Maeve is currently a collaborative artist with SLC dance collective Fleet Co-Operative. Over the past two years Maeve has made work with collaborator Mads Ward, most recently choreographing for Playground Dance Project. Within her choreographic projects, she is currently fascinated with improvisation, humor and character, the multidisciplinary possibilities of voice and props, + the relationship between control vs. trust.
