A few weeks back, I attended a workshop for one of my favorite choreographers, Joe Goode. He is a modern choreographer located in the bay area who's company, Joe Goode Performance Group, has become one of the major voices for dance on the west coast. Uplifting my life for a week, leaving the children, and venturing to San Francisco to attend 8 hours of dance exploration each day was exhilarating and terrifying. There were so many emotions I was shifting through each day that I can't even explain in detail what I learned from this experience. I am glad that I did it, though. Joe Goode is a very compassionate, warm, intelligent, and articulate artist who creates an environment where you can explore openly. You walk in and are immediately put at ease by him and his dancers. It was an experience that I'll always treasure.
Here is some pictures of some impromptu choreography that I created with my wonderful fellow workshop attendees:
