MID–WINTER DANCE WORKSHOP: Creating and Dancing the Times of Our Lives
Friday, January 13 – Monday, January 16, 2023
The phrase “the dance of life” seems natural to us in some ways, but what if we really work to define our personal choreographies and the “times” when we are called into a different rhythmic setting, just as Ecclesiastes projects? Come join companions of like mind as we enter into this very human contemplation of the movements of our lives.
