🦋ATTENTION DANCE ARTISTS + IMPROVISORS OF COLOR🦋

registration for this beautiful event is now open!

RAM JAM with Ryuta Dutah Iwash*ta, Anya Cloud, and Makisig Akin APRIL 14th - 17th is a dreaming and embodying arena for Contact Improvisation fueled by a passion and intuition for queering its ongoing culture of global white supremacy, heteronormativity and the gender binary. This will include co-facilitated jam sessions, open jams, direct offerings/teachings from our individual and collective research/practice and more.

The vision for this event, as proposed by the facilitators, is to have 70% BIPOC participants and 30% white participants.
This vision is reflected in both the staggered registration periods and the pricing [ see website]

Full scholarships are available to Black and Indigenous identified particpants can be applied for HERE www.thefieldcenter.com/ramjam

Keith Hennessy says, “My primary teaching/research is on the politics of relationship and how dance practices can be a laboratory for new social relations based on queer-feminist-antiracist-decolonial ethics. I tend to work mostly with duet practices, improvisation, and experimental ritual.”

Keith is teaching in San Diego in two days! Don't miss it!

Sara Shelton Mann is coming to San Diego August 11-14! Don't miss the chance to study with this master dance artist:

Sara Shelton Mann has been a choreographer, performer, teacher since 1967. She was a protégé of Alwin Nikolais and Murray Lewis in N.Y.C. before moving to Canada where she met Andrew Harwood and fell in love with contact improvisation. In 1979 she moved to San Francisco CA and started the Company Contraband as a performance group and research ground combining the principles of contact, systems of the body and spiritual practice into a unified system of research.

Among her awards are a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Award, John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship, 6 Isadora Duncan Awards, Djerassi Artist in Residence, Headlands Center for the Arts Artist in Residence and SF Bay Guardian Goldie Lifetime Achievement Award.

Her Movement Alchemy training is an ongoing teaching project and is influenced by certifications and studies in the metaphysical and healing traditions.

Sara’s performance work is a platform for collaboration and research in consciousness.
