Pause
with Karen Neslon

August 3 (Monday evening) – August 7 (Friday afternoon)

Working with "pause" pokes awareness into pleasantly habitual movement. It invites a deep look under the surface of the activity. How many diverse ways can “pause” be experienced? Peeling back some layers, how does movement re-emerge from “pause?” Starting from physically engaging warm-up dances, tuning scores will take us off the map.

A slow learner, Karen Nelson has studied tuning scores with Lisa Nelson, material for the spine with Steve Paxton, contact improvisation with countless teachers-students-partners and meditation for just about 3 decades. Practice has evolved, now, to encompass all facets of building a rural retreat facility, where she aspires to sit the three-year retreat.
