Performance Research Workshop: Rest and Refuge with Rosy Simas
April 20, 2021 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am
Based on Rosy’s creative practice, this workshop is intended to create space for refuge and rest – for the body, the heart, the mind, and spirit. We will move, breathe, hear, see, and practice deep listening to ourselves and our environment.
