About the practice

A clear way into the work.

The weekend explores attention and relationship through pairs, trios, discussion, laboratory practice and longer dances. Nita Little’s body of work is an explicit reference for this study.

The organiser lists four hours each day, with registration for the complete weekend. The venue remains unconfirmed. The linked registration form still labels the time as unconfirmed; the schedule here follows the updated IAMS workshop page.
