Some info on our latest series in idioSomatics.

We told you about this new plan that we have with idioSomatics: we are going to have subtitles for each of the short (4 – 6 week) series that we are offering through idioSomatics from now on.  We started with Shannon Murphy’s idioSomatics: POST-JAZZ (get into the all caps 😉 it was pretty major).  Well, now we are right in the middle of our newest series – idioSomatics: Skinsational.

So, what is Skinsational…?  Skinsational, taught by Jumatatu Poe, is a contemporary dance class in which we will draw heightened awareness to the functions and fashions of our skin.  Jumatatu has been lately drawn to the idea of “infinity in both directions” – those things within us that serve to distinguish us, individuate us and clarify our sense of our material and metaphysical selves; then those things that exist beyond the boundaries of where we end, the environment surrounding us.  Largely, in Skinsational, we examine the role of our skin as a liminal bridge between these two infinities, sending information out into the environment to which we connect, and sending information in to our own “selves.”  And that title?  “Sounds sexy, doesn’t it?”, Jumatatu asks.  And, yes, we will go there, too 😉

Friday mornings from 10am – noon at the Community Education Center.  Come check it out!  Bring your body…
