JCWK Dance Lab

JCWK Dance Lab is an ongoing research project combining education, physical dance practice, and performance. Using dance as its medium, JCWK Dance Lab investigates the ways that dance can be a vehicle for non-violent, positive social change by creating Joy, Connection, and Wellness through Kinesthetic stories.

JCWK Dance Lab fulfills its mission through public performances, classes, workshops, and lecture/ demonstrations. JCWK Dance Lab views the practice, performance and education of dance as research. Much like a scientific process, JCWK Dance Lab’s projects involve brainstorming, developing an idea, testing that idea through choreographic and pedagogical investigation in the dance-studio-laboratory, and sharing the results through performance, presentations, and classes.
