About the Event
Curated and organized by the Dance/NYC Junior Committee. Part town hall, part community conversation, this event unpacks what it might mean to “re-enter” the dance field as the NYC dance community begins to resume in-person performances. While the onset of the pandemic marked an abrupt and jarring halt to movement practices, returning to the studio does not have to happen similarly. Using tools drawn both from within the Junior Committee and from Junebug Productions’ “Story Circle” methodology, this event offers ‘redefined practices’ to return to the studio while taking care of physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.

About the Series
As the landscape for dance as professional practice, living ritual and technical production continues to evolve, Redefining Practice explores how artists and institutions are adapting, unlearning and innovating new ways of being in creation––and the many phases that creation takes––to prioritise new learnings in racial justice, physical/emotional safety, and community care.
