In partnership with Cardiff Dance Festival – 8th – 24th November 2019
In partnership with Cardiff Dance Festival 2019, we are pleased to announce that Rosalind Crisp will be coming to the UK to deliver a two day workshop in Cardiff.
choreographic improvisation
Rosalind Crisp will share practical tools for dancers to compose in real time from and with the materiality of their own bodies. The body is prepared by undoing tension and unquestioned patterns.

Structures for watching bring attention to the continual emergence of the dance in a porous relationship with another dancer-witness.
