Dance, Writing and Rhetoric Program, Center for Teaching, Learning and Research, and Committee on Arts in Public Places
As educators, researchers, and members of a fast-paced college community, we often work in static positions that can inhibit our creativity and sense of connection with others. This workshop aims to open up new ways to be in our bodies alone and together. Visiting movement artist Maree ReMalia, who has worked with faculty, staff and students across the disciplines at Middlebury to rave reviews, will facilitate. No particular experience with movement is needed.
