Contemporary Dance Technique Class:
Functionality and Perspective in Dance is a contemporary dance class developed from Sánchez Ruíz’s own movement vocabulary and improvisation techniques, with strong formative influences of David Zambrano, Trisha Brown, and Cuban cultural traditions. Focus in the importance of being grounded, dancers work with initiation and arrival, stillness and counter-balance within visceral and organic movement. Rhythms of phrases are defined through natural weight of muscles and extremities, giving students new ways of realizing movement and making dances, encouraging curiosity and exploration. This workshop class includes Rollercoaster partnering exercises, learning and developing how to take and give weigh in improvising settings, that feature sliding and move in and out of the floor with awarenes and speed.
Judith Sánchez Ruíz is a Cuban born choreographer, performer and teacher based in New York since 1999. She has performed with Trisha Brown Dance Company; David Zambrano; DD Dorvillier; Jeremy Nelson, DanzAbierta Company; Mal Pelo Company; Deborah Hay and is currently member of Sasha Waltz & Dancers. She has developed various collaborative projects with innovative composers, visual artists, and photographers. She was awarded "Mujeres Destacadas (Outstanding Women) 2008" by the Spanish newspaper in NYC, El DIARIO. She was also selected by Dance Magazine as one of the 25 Dancers to Watch in 2010. Ms. Sanchez has presented her choreography throughout the U.S., Europe, Latin America and Cuba. Commissioned choreography works at Danspace Project St. Marks Church, (NY); Whitney Museum, (NY); Storm King Art Center, (NY), and Work & Progress at Guggenheim Museum, ( NY); Danish National School of Theater and Contemporary Dance in Copenhagen, Denmark; and Hedwig Dance.

DMAC- Duo Multicultural Arts Center 2011, and Movement Research’s Artist-in-Residence 2003-2004 and 2011-2012.
Passing Through
Passing Through is an improvisation “game” or technique created and developed by David Zambrano that I have mastered through all these years working with him. In the making of movement compositions, I focus on creating and developing the dynamics for complex systems to present leadership in the form of a group web. The passing through takes students through various exercises to manifest that same idea. The group will create dynamics that will be flexible, complex, getting the group to fit tight together, yet always keeping doors open for the unpredictable. The group moves constantly, transforming the environment of the dance. I propose to the students to see the room full of pathways - infinite pathways passing through the walls, the floor, even the bodies. These pathways go in any direction and are filled with curves, large and small. Visible and invisible spirals are constantly passing through the students. Thus the passing through are created into a spontaneous composition. When the group becomes one mind, it can never get lost, there is never one person leading or following, every one is leading or following, depending on the situation. The whole group is constantly traveling, weaving their bodies inside and out of their classmates and still always aware of the environment around them. After taking part in the passing through, the student will learn to instantly connect with their environment and become more spontaneous in the making of choices as an improviser, choreographer or dancing in someone else work.
Edivaldo Ernesto was born in Maputo (Mozambique). He begins to dance in 1998 with the tsemba dance group,where he learns Mozambican traditional dance for 4 years.
