Katherine Desimine- Preparing for Performance
Saturday 9/6/2025
1-2:30PM @ CHI Movement Arts Center
1316 S. 9th Street
DESCRIPTION: What do you need to feel present, available, and prepared to perform in front of an audience?
In this workshop I will share some grounding techniques and tools for mental and physical preparation for performance, drawing from my own experiences as a dancer. Any performer who uses their body on stage will be able to benefit from these tools!
In addition to me sharing some practices that I personally enjoy and find effective, we will work together and in small groups to devise exercises that will help prepare you for the demands of a specific performance you may have coming up… (and if you don’t have a performance coming up, you could think of one you’ve done in the past!)
Together let's explore, in a supportive and collaborative environment, how it feels to be prepared and available for performance-- and how to consistently access that physical and mental state.
LEVEL: Open to all levels of movement experience
