The world we exist in requires a universal level of connectivity now more than ever before. As dancers and movement practitioners, we are interested in pursuing our ongoing mission to provide platforms and opportunities for human-to-human connection, and now we are finding ways to amplify the voices of local activist organizations by sharing our craft of dance and embodied healing. Through a unified effort of donation based classes and various engagements, we want to encourage the moving body community to join us for a week of putting their bodies, minds, souls, and spare change where it matters most…..in the hands of our frontline activists.
Our Next Workshop Week: 9/21-9/25!
Environmental Justice
This workshop week is centered around Climate Awareness and we are partnering with the performance platform, CreateART. The performances they art putting on with NoOSPHERE ARTS will bookend our workshop week and the amazing choreographers will be teaching us class- on the roof of NoOSPHERE ARTS!
We are raising money for WE ACT for Environmental Justice, a Harlem-based nonprofit working to fight environmental racism at the city, state, and federal levels.
Our amazing lineup of movement teachers will be teaching OUTSIDE. Sign up and donate! See our schedule below

Cameron McKinney
NAGARE Technique
in Prospect Park
This contemporary floorwork-based class holds influences from street dance, capoeira, and house dance. The class is rooted in Cameron McKinney’s NAGARE technique which activates oppositional forces and contrasting sensations to achieve fluid transitions in and out of the floor.

As a playful teacher, she strives to give students another avenue into exploring dynamic postures and honing into what their individual body craves.

Alex Beaty
Mobility Training
on the roof of
The Last Frontier, NYC
Alex’s mobility class will be part yoga, part pilates, and a lot of joint strength to help you find the right balance of strength and flexibility. The tools you will learn in class will help keep your body safe, strong and limber.
Isabel Umali
Sensorial Dancing
in Prospect Park
Isabel will lead a movement exploration guided by her work in biodynamic craniosacral therapy. Together we will move dynamically and listen to the powerful movement within us, our connection to each other and wider forces, and our potential to come up against our discomfort and heal. We can create embodied connection while connecting to the love and practice of dance.
