Curriculum

This intensive welcomes artists at any stage of their career, working in any form of movement based or interdisciplinary exploration, looking to immerse in creative process, practice, and performance. 

We will focus on process with an attention to each participant’s creative vision, questions, challenges and strengths.  Participants ideas and visions are self-directed and may include performance and/or projects for the frame/screen as a platform for sharing work.  

Grounded in the body, the voice, improvisational practice, and inquiry, participants begin and end each session with a group check in. The program offers an opportunity to engage in a collaborative process with Leah Stein that concludes with an informal virtual performance or sharing.
