Teaching: Upcoming! 2/22/2025

Come join Kestrels for All of Us, a creative workshop for dancers facilitated by Molly Poerstel to celebrate the magick of our craft through the fulcrum of the contemporary dancer as somatic archivist. Through experimentation, improvisation, and writing, we will explore the inner topography of our past memories, lineages, and rebellions by way of experimentation and somatic intellect. Here, we stay watchful for how these threads show up in our dancing. All of us aims to create a bodily incantation which culls our ancestries, lineages, culture and the various choreographies and idioms that we inhabit, while dreaming up new sustainable paradigms for our bodies to interact with emerging choreographic idioms.

This workshop will be broken up into two sections: the first two hours will compose of improvisation of the voice and body, as well as somatic writing while the last two hours will be centered around an individual creative practice. What develops could be a spell, a prayer, a manifesto, a poem or a dance which honors the heft, wisdom, and trajectories which swirl within our bodies.
