Where the HEART is in the ART
1) THE ALCHEMY PERFORMANCE SERIES
…a long journey for those wishing to delve deeply and share soulfully…
This 8-week improvisation intensive is for dancers and movers wishing to explore the freedom and beauty of the present moment.
With a focus on IMPROVISATION, we develop trust in our inner world - embracing the unique qualities that make us who we are, and allowing them to activate and inspire the dance. Together, we embark on a deep excavation of the connections between inner self and outer expression - through dance, writing, drawing and sharing. In a dynamic process of affirmation and transformation, we explore and integrate our sensations, feelings, memories and imaginings through the body and the breath. Alchemy engages the heart and enriches the spirit in a joyful celebration of the moving moment.
Weekly improvised performance culminates in a final showing for invited guests. Beginners and Experienced Alchemists warmly welcomed.

2) THE ALCHEMY DROP-IN SERIES
…a shorter journey for those keen to explore and discover…
This 6-week DANCE IMPROVISATION workshop is for movers seeking to explore the freedom and beauty of presence.
In this workshop, we will explore our own unique way of moving through dance made in the moment. In a climate of non-judgement and trust, we will discover spontaneity, playfulness and delight - as we dance on our own and together. Mind/body awareness, inspirational imagery and exercises to deepen the connection between our hearts and our dance, will combine to liberate movement that is tender, expressive and alive. Using dance, writing, witnessing and sharing, this workshop is designed for those wishing to honour the unique qualities of their moving body, embrace authenticity and expand understanding of the creative process. Alchemy engages the heart and enriches the spirit in a joyful celebration of the moving moment.
