I am starting up a new class here in Berlin, at Theaterkapelle to be precise. Teaching as creative practice. I plan to turn conventional didactic and methodology on its head, I will shake them up until they lay in shambles, and I will plant a new field of flexible elements - following my and participants’ needs for openness, space, room to be in more fully. It is part of a new strain of research...

Oral Dance Histories - at Tanznacht Berlin 2012 →
I teamed up with Peter Pleyer and Andrea Keiz for a series of meandering conversations while engaging in some pretty tactile activity: knitting and crocheting. A fantastic way to listen to some folks talk about Berlin dance history. I say this casually, but we had the chance to talk to the grand movers and shakers of the contemporary dance field, like Nele Hertling and Irene Sieben. What is...

itch Dance Journal has a brand new virtual face! →

current studio practice

i have been finding the drive of...

Dancing to Music
FEELS DIRTY.
I am in a transitional void. In-between. Not here, not there. I have made it my practice to make space to experience resonances (of other places, of other bodies, of my corporeal history, of my myriad practices), things that resonate with me. I lost my artistic context for now, seemingly, trying to figure out how dance is understood and shared here, what is legible for audiences....

The 6608 space*
6608 Lexington St. Los Angeles, CA 90038
It is with great sadness and unexpected joy that we announce the death of Anatomy Riot, “AR”, 45, of Los Angeles, CA. AR was a wanderer, making her home from bars to ballrooms over the past 6+ years. Hard-working, easygoing, unassuming, and community-minded, AR was loved by many; and is survived by Meg Wolfe, Show Box LA, and...
