WHAT'S ON
Join Dylan to explore the idea of queer embodiment through art making and movement.
What’s it like to be you in your body? Let’s dive into the diversity and fluidity of queer experiences!
Join Dylan to explore the idea of queer embodiment through art making and/or movement.
Using improvisation, we will (re)discover our individual flow states and play with how we can honour our individuality within a group. The intention for the space is one of curiosity, celebration, and validation.

7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Free, booking recommended
Please note, we are on the second floor, accessed by a staircase only. Regrettably the studios are not wheelchair accessible.
Dylan Reddish (they/them) is a queer movement artist. While dance is their primary modality, Dylan dabbles in music and mark making, too. Dylan prefers to work on projects that are improvisational and interdisciplinary. Their work has been featured in the American Dance Festival, North Carolina Dance Festival, Greensboro Fringe Festival, University of NC Greensboro, NC School of the Arts, Shadowbox Sessions, Greensboro Project Space, Greenhill Center for NC Art, and loads of small, indie venues (which feel more important than the bigger ones, anyways).
Dylan’s practice is informed by BodyMind Centering, Bartenieff, BrainDance, experiential anatomy, butoh, and however else they feel like wiggling on the day. Their embodiment toolkit comes from their training as a somatic educator with Moving on Center (Berkeley, CA).
Dylan has a master’s degree in dance movement psychotherapy from the University of Roehampton. They work in adult mental health as a registered dance movement psychotherapist.
