Maui Arts & Cultural Center, Omori A Dance Studio
The “Deep Listening: Poetry of the Moving Body Workshop” is led by Sam Aros Mitchell, RSD Dancer and Community Engagement Consultant. Workshop participants will be introduced to movement prompts from Simas’ embodied practice as well as scores from their current performance work, she who lives on the road to war (SWLRW). The workshop will include prompts such as moving with eyes closed and open, moving away from and towards the light, initiating movement from various points on the body (outside in to inside out), and moving in response to information from the skin. In addition, workshop participants will learn about the historical and cultural significance of deer lace for Haudenosaunee people and be invited to explore movement scores from the SWLRW performance related to working with deer lace to “untangle the knots”. This workshop is intended for movers of various ages and levels of experience.
