What is mo͞ovmənt?

I love movement. I always have. I also love people and seeing then in full expression & truly alive. This makes me happy. This can happen in elaborate ways through performance or just one person standing open with another. Mo͞ovmənt is a playful practice, developing a fearless range and virtuosity, while drawing out the raw innate nature to move and feel. It is an expression of pure human responsiveness – in heart and bones like the child you once were. To eat when you are hungry, shout out when you are hurt, to reach when someone calls for help, to fall into the effortlessness of joy and listening deeply to the truth within.

Bone House North

A bone house is you, it’s me, our bodies, a structure, a container, and here, it is also a mythical house of transformation, story and direction. Bone House North came from wanting to work more intentionally in dance, movement and healing with all people. It also came from the beautiful way my colleague and dear friend, Leslie Merrill and I work together in a play of “you lead, I follow.” An amazing community of artists have banded together here to create. In this process of imagining better ways, many things have happened and it’s blown open our lives and our work. We are transforming, and witness this happening with countless people, classes, workshops, projects and performances. People come here to feel alive, to move, to contribute and create, letting go into their hearts & bodies, feeling home and pointing them in their true direction. Thank you for visiting. We are so glad you are here.

with gratitude and love,

The Band
