This workshop will focus on deepening our approach to learning new choreography while building physical, mental, and artistic skills to dive into any new movement with confidence. We will begin with a FoCo technique class led by Nat, which will serve as a warm up and establish the basis of Yue Yin’s movement language. After the FoCo class, Nat will lead participants through movement generated for YYDC’s newest work ELSEWHERE. The work will premiere at 92NY October 17th and 18th of this year.
