Symposium

A date for your diaries ...

We have a coming up at Middlesex Univeristy on Saturday Feb 24th, 

Narrating the Somatic: gathering voices, sharing practices

The symposium will explore how we tell the tales of our embodied experiences and share our practices…narrating the somatic. The Symposium will bring together existing published academics, visual documentaries of movement (photography/film), and movers and choreographers practicing professionally in the field. The event also links to a call for papers for an up-coming special issue of the 
Journal of Dance and Somatic Practices that Helen & I will be guest editing.

Booking is now open for the event :

Questions

As we are in an assessment period, we might contact you with individual questions or requests please do not be surprised (or concerned) by these emails but do look out for them. We take assessment very seriously and there are times when extra information is needed by different people within the assessment process. It is not usually a question of an in correct submission - it is just the humanity of attempting to assess fully rounded individual artists.

We start back at the beginning of February, looking forward to working together next term...
