\ud83e\ude70 Sticky Feet and Ballet House are two open-minded approaches to ballet, born out of a curiosity about how classical ballet technique and structure might engage with the philosophy of house dance and hip-hop culture.<\/p>


These practices were developed by dance artist Joseph Simon in collaboration with other creators. They blend the lines and aesthetics of classical ballet with a groove-oriented mindset\u2014a freer physical expression and a posture shaped by jazz and African American cultural forms. It is a search for alternatives while maintaining respect for the cultures from which they originate.<\/p>

The workshop is based on the idea that clear structure and creative freedom can coexist, manifesting in a single body. Participants are invited to maintain the precision and physical clarity of ballet in certain parts of the body, while allowing groove, freedom, and personal style to unfold in others.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Participants in the workshop can expect exercises, tasks, and short choreographies; we will draw on a freely interpreted structure of a ballet class\u2014pli\u00e9, tendu, tourner, and saut\u00e9\u2014reimagined through the lens of rhythm, sensation, and individual expression.<\/p>
