CREATIVE MOVEMENT FOR GROWN UPS

Ever wanted to dive into movement like a professional dancer? In this class, you can—no technique needed, just curiosity and a willingness to explore! Move, groove, and play with intention—like a kid, but with the focus and depth of an artist. Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned dancer, this class invites you to discover your body’s imagination through joyful exploration, guided play, and fun music with kindred spirits led by renowned choreographer Nicole Wolcott.

As a choreographer Nicole is as interested in the dancer as much as the dance.  She midwifes dances from the people she works with.  Professionals and novices alike.  This class is part of  her research and process.  You will become comfortable with your own movement and choice making through play, groove and rigor.

Let go of judgment, invite in curiosity and, dear god, a sense of humor.  This is the J.O.D. the Joy of Dance.

Nicole is an evangelist for the J.O.D. (The Joy of Dance) she draws inspiration from the people she collaborates with, her years of research and practice with Gerzy Growtowski’s Experimental Theater methodology plastiques, Ohad Naharin’s Gaga, Lisa Nelson’s TuningAuthentic Movement and thirty years teaching improvisation as practice, process and performance to 2-4 year olds, teenagers, graduate students, pre-professionals, professionals and community members.  She has taught at a range of institutions including, The Joffrey Conservatory program in NYC,  NYU, Hunter College’s Graduate Program, and adjunct at Princeton University. Dancing has been Nicole’s north star since she was 10.
