Anna Halprin (1920--2021) is considered a revolutionary force in dance. A pioneer in the use of arts for personal development she created Tamalpa Life/Art Process and Movement Ritual. Halprin views dance as social experience and metaphor for moving through life. Here you will get a taste of her search to "[unite] personal and artistic growth, life and art, with one aspect continuously feeding off the other and coming together in new ways." We will explore the communicative potential in everyday gestures and create a simple group choreography.
