Cal State Fresno residency Sept 24-27, 2010

Day 1
I've been looking forward to this residency even though it comes in the middle of the re-creation of a new dance on Moving Arts. Professor Kenneth Balint danced in A Ludwig Dance Co (although a few years after I did!) so it's all in the dance-family!

This is a short and quick process (4 days) so today we went through what would normally be ten weeks of material about Expressive Movement Processing in three hours AND covered the basics of partnering! And that was just the audition! Whoosh!

The students are great. Young & strong bodies, eager & open minds, they'll make the most of my time here.

We have chosen 12 dancers to work with and will create a dance for the American College Dance Festival. This will be fun.. AND we have our work cut out for us!
