PERCUSSIVE DANCE Sandy Silva | CA
Dance Workshop
27 November | 10am to 12pm
Multidesportivo Sporting
Building on Migration Dance Film Project’s use of the power of procession, this community workshop will explore body percussion and vocals taught by Sandy Silva. Participants will engage in an embodied vocal and movement experience, which is shared through a common walking “pulse” incorporating gestures, movement rhythms and vocalizations. The workshop includes activities for participants of multiple skill levels, using music, dance and vocals. The result is an embodied meditation in sound and motion.
Who Can participate
Open to varying ages, 12 years old and older — and to movers of all levels of dance experience, dancers with some training (students or professionals) as well as musicians (students or professionals) who may be interested in body percussion, singing and movement practice are welcome to participate. Wear comfortable clothing.
