Trisha Brown Repertory - Glacial Decoy

A workshop for learning the movement aesthetic and choreography of Trisha Brown’s "Glacial Decoy" (1979), the first dance Brown choreographed for the proscenium stage, and one of her most gorgeous works. Emphasis is placed on moving with mindfulness, attention to detail, spatial clarity, performance quality, and dancing with others. This class provides an excellent framework for applying principles of the Alexander Technique to movement, and refining the organisation of the dancing body.
