Workshop Offerings
Each unique and challenging movement workshop guides the participants through an investigation of their true potential of physicality. The trajectory of my training and performance has directed the development of these movement curriculums. We will work inside out to expand the horizon of what we understand as possible within our bodies.
These workshops are available in person and virtually to all age groups and technique levels. Email me at TiffanySFish@gmail.com to learn more.
The Internal Teacher: A ballet class
Within my ballet class I use images and sensations to direct each dancer on how to harness their internal teacher. The critical gaze of the observer is removed and in its place the students receive guidance on how to create an internal practice, by enhancing their proprioceptive discernment of effort and awareness.
Harnessing Tension
Through the exploration of tension, which naturally exists within and without our bodies, this contemporary movement workshop challenges the dancers to push past their personal barriers of facility, expectation and technique in order to enjoy their true potential for movement .
Meditative Movement
This workshop was created due to my recent immersion into the more contemplative movement practices of the Gaga movement language and Ashtanga Yoga. These classes can be geared toward the dancer or the non/dancer and focus upon the body as a vehicle to quiet the mind and expand the physical potential of each student’s practice.
Choreographing the frame
Creating within the performance platform of Dance-Film is immensely different than crafting movement for the proscenium stage. This workshop will lead it’s participants through the creation of a dance -film from conception to post production. We will begin with the origins of the medium and move through techniques of film-making and into the exploration of choreographic techniques for the screen.
You and Me: the counterpoint of communication
This choreography workshop will encourage the cultivation of curiosity around the dissemination of a movement’s meaning. Though an investigation into the ideas of eukinetics, semiotics and state of mind, each participate will have the opportunity to create and to be created upon in an atmosphere of pure experimentation.
