Visual description: In the background, a trio of dancers. Two of them stand facing each other, clasping hands, while one extends their leg behind their body. The third dancer rests on their knees with their hands placed on their knees, framed between the other two. In the foreground, a pair of dancers. One, facing forward, crouches and leans to the side while balancing on their arm, looking downward, with their other arm outstretched upwards, finger pointing towards the other dancer who sits facing perpendicular to them, arms resting at their side, glancing down at them. The pair wears matching outfits.

 


Hello CRIPSiE artists and supporters!


As CRIPSiE begins the transition to in-person dance opportunities (stay tuned for more details!) we, the leadership team, are feeling the need to re-introduce our bodies and mind to movement and movement creation. Many of us, because of pandemic, have not had much of an opportunity to dance and are feeling out of practice. If you are feeling the same, or are just hoping to dance with us again, we would love for you to join us for our upcoming workshop series!


Our online workshop series, lead by the wonderful Ainsley Hillyard of Good Women Dance Collective, will help ease our minds and bodies back into the creative and physical world of dance and dance creation. Each class will begin with a short warm up consisting of choreographed movements then transition into an exploration of improvisational techniques as means of generating movement.


We would love to help support our artists's journey back to dance creation and performance art, so we have made this a paid opportunity for our CRIPSiE artists. Our artists will be paid $25 for each session they attend.
