GUT Motives is an alternative contemporary dance class, an ongoing research towards a general unified theory of the act of motion from internal impulse to external expression. The work utilizes a hybrid of forms to encourage deep awareness and understanding of the body in itself and the body in motion, motivated by multiple meanings of guts, including viscera, center of gravity, courage, instinct, intuition, revelation and vulnerability.
The goal of the class is to understand how we can arrive at and maintain a kinaesthetic readiness, not only for movement, but also for bearing weight through using the release of the joints to re-align our structures between any two (or more) points of contact as soon as they emerge.
Paired with Kristin’s Beginning Contemporary class, this inversion workshop will help you build the skills to take yourself upside down! In class, you will explore how to use the physicality of your body to build momentum and have a play with gravity. Kristin will then offer a closer, hands-on-approach to helping you build the strength and proper alignment to become inverted safely to find balance and control.

Got the Blues? Come learn how to dance them out! In this special class, students will be introduced to the rich history of partnered Blues dances and music. Blues dancing grew and developed alongside blues music, from the jook joints of the Mississippi Delta and Chicago to the ballrooms of Harlem.
