A movement exploration

unstructured

How It Began…

What began as a prompt-based freestyle class for pole dancers seeking to embody their art, Unstructured quickly became a dance and movement exploration journey into who we are as artists, dancers, creatives and everyday people. Unstructured became a space where we gave ourselves permission to let go of expectations, while still honoring our creative drive and artistic choices. In doing so, a simple freestyle prompt became a vast world to discover within through dance.

Unstructured Monthly series

Unstructured Series is a 3 or 4 week pole freestyle exploration built around a single theme. Where a standard Unstructured class moves through one theme in one session, the series stays with one theme. Each session builds on the previous one, approaching it through different elements and ideas — giving room to grow, shift, and to go broader within your practice.

Session Format

The movement exploration is still there. So is the discussion, witnessing, and curiosity about what the body has to say. But the format will look a little different.

A standard Unstructured class is built around 3 rounds of freestyle exploration done in two groups. This series will shift depending on where the exploration takes us. We won't always witness each other in groups, freestyle rounds may vary in length or frequency, and sometimes I’ll add elements such as a short guided visualizations or light writing. At the end of the day, this is still Unstructured- a communal space where we dance and share together, and how we show up in it is what makes it unique.
