Testimonials

"The most interesting part of the program was having most of my questions given back to me to figure out for myself. Learning via observation and attention vs. words. Pushing beyond my perceived limits."        - Adele Jerista, '07

"The most interesting part of the program was training without explanations, the essentializing of language through action, moving through perceived limitations in rhythm and relationship."   -Tyler Gage, '07

"...really getting into my body and the body of the group...finding myself and others in the fluidity of the ensemble...finding ways to recognize limits and use resistance creatively."    - Scott Halligan, '07
