Master Class with Limón Dance Company

Join us on Wednesday, October 8th for a Master Class with Limón Lab’s Artistic Director Dante Puleio. This dance workshop is free but please RSVP, space is limited.

Limón Technique:

• An investigation of how 20th century modern dance movement vocabulary and principles from the Humphrey/Limón perspective can be accessible for the 21st century artist
• Discover weight and momentum with safety and efficiency while embodying dance history
• Focus on breath and the pelvis as a connection to deepening the understanding of fall/recovery and suspension/opposition
• Fly through and cover space with rhythmic phrasework experimenting with control, release, speed, accuracy and performance
• Move through transitions and fine tune the athleticism and artistry needed for the 21st century performer

Limón Repertory:

• An opportunity to walk in the steps of the founders of modern dance.
• Deconstructing Limón’s phrasework, examining what he created, why he created it, what it meant at the time and how it resonates today.
• Harvesting that material, we will find our personal connection to the intention of the work to find agency and bring the individual’s voice to well known and celebrated works.
