Our Deep In My Bones workshop is a 3-hour team-building experience that explores contemporary and social dance movements, connecting people through shared experiences. This workshop encourages discussion, discovery, and personal connections through exploratory movement.

Facilitators Erica Rae Smith and Dr. Shatiea Blount leverages their combined expertise in choreography, team building, research, mental well-being, and personal storytelling to support participants in expressing their own narratives through dance and movement. Incorporating elements from various dance disciplines—including modern, social, improvisational, and somatic movement practices—participants are invited to share movements inspired by their lived experiences, guided by verbal and musical prompts. The workshop culminates in a collaborative phrase work created alongside the facilitators.

Participating in this workshop is an opportunity to engage deeply with the emotional depth and personal significance of dance. This immersive experience fosters self-expression and connection, making it ideal for individuals and groups looking to build stronger relationships and explore new forms of movement. Whether you're a seasoned dancer or a beginner, this workshop offers a welcoming space to discover and celebrate the power of movement. It is perfect for team and morale building. Invite us to your organization to experience an unforgettable journey of movement and connection. Let the rhythms of shared experiences resonate within you.
