How do you acquire stage presence? What is the difference between emoting and feeling? And how do you accept the vulnerability of performing? Beyond Technique addresses those questions and more.
Beyond Technique is led by Samantha Géracht, Artistic Director of the Sokolow Theatre/Dance Ensemble. Learn how to use movement as the foundation of emotional projection, a method Anna Sokolow developed while teaching at Julliard. Anna’s approach is appropriate for both experienced dancers and actors. Guest teachers from a variety of modern dance traditions—Graham, Horton, Nikolais/Louis, and Humphrey/Weidman/Limón—will periodically offer multiple-session workshops, providing students breadth in their practice of performing.
