About Dance Nights

Dance Nights is an 8-week workshop series bringing a different Vermont dance teacher to the Flynn each week. The workshop leader for each week will offer an open level class for curious movers and community members, and an advanced level class for experienced/professional practitioners and creators each week. 

Each workshop will give a sneak peek into skills and processes, with choreographic tools, devising mechanisms, improvisational games and scores, unique training techniques and avenues for somatic inquiry. 

Workshop leaders' diverse backgrounds of training include specialties in: floor work, interdisciplinary composition, collaborating across mediums, House & Hip Hop, Butoh, and performing improvisation. 

The Dance Nights Series will provide rigorous training experiences to empower and influence our art making; encourage local dancers to meet one another; expand the style and content of offerings to be found in Vermont; highlight experimental training with unique teachers; provide accessible ways for all bodies to move. Dance Nights will be a training ground for discovery, expansion, development and connections through movement.  

The Dance Night Series is curated by production company ANIMAL Dance, and hosted by the Flynn.
