Isabel Shaida will lead participants in a free workshop exploring the SIX VIEWPOINTS, a technique of improvisation and observation created by Mary Overlie. This practice deconstructs the primary materials of performance into six studies: Space, Shape, Time, Emotion, Movement and Story.

This workshop is an opportunity for your child (and you!) to explore movement, body shapes, and spatial awareness. Movement and play are essential parts of Isabel’s art practice. Together we will explore how we move through space, imagining ourselves in a variety of scenarios, or as different shapes, beings, objects, and bodies. We will play some games, run around and create as a group. v

All ages welcome. Guardians must be present with children under six. All guardians are encouraged to participate.

No prior movement experience necessary. Six Viewpoints theory and practice is welcome to all bodies and personal histories. Please wear comfortable clothes and sneakers.

Contact Isabel at isa.shaida@gmail.com with any questions.
