MELT/Virtual Workshop: Writing for Scenario/writing for the love of dancing
July 14-17, 2026 / 11AM-1PM (EDT)
Available worldwide
Registration through Movement Research
Writing for the love of it – a journal, a view, a sideways walking, portals and frames, a quadrant as a mountain climb. Exploring writing as dancers, we venture into the cave of dreaming out into the open fields. We then launch our minds in the sky.
This workshop combines writing and dance to expand awareness of the many worlds we inhabit. Through journaling, movement, and creative exercises, dancers explore working with the imagination muscle and fine-tune attention to detail. Using Chi Cultivation to warm up the body, moving to scrambling techniques for the day. Through perceptual writing, puzzles, and dance, new possibilities and perspectives awake.
Tools needed: Pen, pencil, paper
Optional: a long paper you can put/tape on a wall. Chalk, crayons, charcoal, markers. Some books around.
