Somatic Workshop at The Lyric
The students enjoyed their second in a series of Somatic Movement Workshops led by Ms. Ebony Evans, Education Specialist and Resident Artist at The Lyric. There was an exercise that focused on boundaries and the importance of understanding and setting your own as well as respecting others. It was surprisingly revealing for everyone involved. The students also did an exercise with impromptu movement to music performed by Antonio Eyez.
The worksop also had the students develop and perform a short act play built around a prompt. Finally the students worked with Denise Kumani Gantt, Director of Education and Resident Artist at The Lyric, on their journal writing which culminated in several students reading from their work.
This was a meaningful and enjoyable event. We deeply appreciate the lunch and the great seminars which Denise, Ebony and The Lyric provide for us.
