MOVEMENT WORKSHOP by Verena Schneider
In a contemporary movement workshop, acrobat, dancer, and choreographer Verena Schneider invites participants to explore different forms of touch. Together, we experience how touch makes us dance from within and how we are moved by touching each other. What traces will touch leave behind, and how will it shape our dance?
