How might non-human life cycles, decay, electrical impulse, plants, and dancing all be the same thing? Can we put seemingly disparate ideas side by side in our bodies and invite ourselves out of a movement rut? This improvisational laboratory will begin with physical rituals for warming up the body and letting things go/end/decay, will continue with practices of attention/sensation, allow time for deeper play/investigations/research, and then offer space for new discoveries to be shared and reconfigured when placed next to each other. Together we will utilize creative decision making that bypasses the frontal lobe, and encourage the unknown in each other. We’ll disorient, reorient, let our moves lead us elsewhere, make things, maybe touch, definitely sweat. We will utilize contained time and space parameters to encourage deep and specific embodied research. We’ll move away from the question:

- “What is interesting to other people in my dancing/how does this look?”

and, instead, towards:

- “What is interesting to me about this prompt?”  
- “How can I trust that my technique is there supporting me without it becoming my dominant driver?”
- “What new qualitative details and dynamic states of movement can I uncover in myself when I work from embodied intuition?”
