Workshop Details
Act I: All Eyes On Me with Hennessy BLK
Description
Unlock the power of an irresistible presence (IP). Without saying a word, captivate an audience, and enjoy doing it… without caring what is desired by the masses. Tap into what is needed in the space you take up. In this aparatus-agnostic™ workshop, participants will engage in a prompt-based movement sequence to develop their own IP.
Pre-Reqs
All levels with basic understanding of dance fundamentals: full pirouette, body rolls, leg flairs/waves.
Expectations
Attendees will be challenged with exploring both subtle and explosive moments, regardless of the apparatus (pole, floor, chair, pole, lyra, lollipop), learning how to incorporate them into their own flow that feels both personal and inviting to those lucky to witness it.
Location
Secret Garden Pole Fitness Boutique
3201 Atlanta Industrial Parkway NW, Suite 206, Atlanta, GA 30331
Act II: Eyeconomy with Ashley Savage
Description
Examine the use of erotic capital [Siobhan Brooks] in the visual to become aware of its impact. Confront feels about cyber and physical space as markets of attention & bodies. Prioritize be(cum)ing [Zalika U. Ibaorimi] visible in the production of the visual. Put into practice “All Eyes On Me” [Hennessy BLK] methods, expanding them into revelations on “Possession” [Ashley S] of taste, lore and essence ethics [Carmine Black] in the eyeconomy.
