ABOUT THIS CLASS
Attendees will be invited to connect with collective bodies and souls through movement practice with Dancing Earth's Founder and Creative Director. Together, we will move to our bodies and the pulse we create. Through this workshop we will be learning how to ground ourselves with the land and our own beat through various floor movement and a variety of mixed choreography that incorporates land acknowledgement, modern, contemporary and a touch of improv.
ABOUT DANCING EARTH & RULAN TANGEN
Dancing Earth's movement practice is based in finding your authentic movement in connection to land and your own ancestors. What is the future you want to experience for yourself & 7 generations ahead? We are the superheros to birth that world into being, lets embody together!
We offer MOVEMENT OF MOVEMENT BUILDING workshops , that invite in community members of all backgrounds, ages, experiences, for movement centered practices and dialogues. Our work is guided by Native elders, and focuses on issues of cultural ecological sustainability.
Rulan Tangen's dance journey centers around the founding of DANCING EARTH CREATIONS (DE) in 2004. After years of teaching dance workshops to reservation youth, she strove to create hope and opportunity for aspiring performers, theater artists and technicians, who also serve as culture carriers, art educators, and leaders. Dancing Earth has thus inspired a new generation of Indigenous performers to express their culture in vital contemporary and experimental forms.
DANCING EARTH is an Indigenous contemporary dance theater group, who are honored to be dually based in traditional homelands of Yelamu, and O’gaa P’ogeh.
