WCD is thrilled to present the workshop, Dancing from the Inside Out with Margie Gillis. An incredible opportunity for local dancers! Geared towards experienced and professional level dancers.

Move into your body’s experiential wisdom and reveal the soul in motion. Develop your sensitivity to the connection between thought, feeling, spirit and body as you listen in to your body’s inner wisdom, impulses, conversations and emotions. Becoming sensitive to and engaging with this inner life provides information both for expanding well-being, as well as deepening your artistic and creative expression.

What is the architecture of our inner landscape? How can we discover the transcendent moments in ourselves and share this with our audiences? This workshop is for advanced and professional level dancers and focuses on the artist and reaching a profound communication through that art to others.

Please complete a waiver for this season before participating in the workshop and send it to communications@winnipegscontemporarydancers.ca.

Tickets: Pay What You May $20 suggested.
