Cunningham Technique as a Practice of Freedom

Duke Dance Program is excited to celebrate the centenary of legendary choreographer Merce Cunningham with a set of unique classes at the Ruby, developed by dancer and choreographer Justin Tornow. Justin will present a series of master-classes, vibrantly reworking some of Cunningham's methodology and propositions. This series acts as a basic introduction to Cunningham technique as well as a launch pad for Tornow to infuse it with contemporary agency. Tornow is currently a Merce Cunningham dance research fellow at the New York Public Library. Everyone is welcome and classes are open to all student and community dancers. The classes are free but registration is required.

The dates for the classes are:
3/22/2019 from 7:00 - 9:00 PM
4/05/2019 from 7:00 - 9:00 PM
4/06/2019 from 11:00AM - 1:00 PM
4/19/2019 from 7:00 - 9:00 PM
4/20/2019 from 11:00AM - 1:00 PM

Attending all classes in the series would be ideal.
