Movement as practice. Community in process.
Our community programming brings dancers, artists, and curious movers into a shared practice. Whether you’re taking class, diving into a workshop, or spending multiple days inside an intensive, each offering is designed as an entry point into our movement philosophy and creative ecosystem.
Community Classes
A Consistent Practice
Community Classes are the foundation of our movement ecosystem. These classes offer an accessible, high-quality space to move, train, and reconnect — led by projectALCHEMY artists and guest teaching artists.
Rather than rotating styles week to week, our class structure emphasizes continuity, allowing dancers to deepen their understanding of each teacher’s approach and build relationships over time.
What to Expect
Open-level contemporary movement
Technique, improvisation, and partnering
Process-driven, inquiry-based class structures
A welcoming space for professional dancers, students, and experienced movers
Classes prioritize presence, curiosity, and physical intelligence over performance or perfection.
Workshops
Focused Exploration
Workshops offer a deeper dive into specific movement concepts, creative tools, or collaborative processes. These short-term intensives — ranging from a single session to a full day — are designed for dancers seeking concentrated exploration without a long-term commitment.
Workshop formats may include:
Repertory-based learning
Partnering and physical dialogue
Improvisation and composition
Interdisciplinary collaboration
Process-based choreographic research
Workshops are announced throughout the season and are open to dancers interested in expanding their practice and perspective.
Intensives
Immersion & Transformation
Intensives are multi-day, immersive experiences that invite participants into the deeper rhythms of projectALCHEMY’s creative process. These offerings are designed for dancers seeking sustained engagement, artistic growth, and company-level inquiry.
Intensives often include:
Daily technique and movement classes
Creative research and phrase work
Improvisation and partnering
Exposure to company repertory
Dialogue around artistic voice and process
Participants experience what it means to work inside the company ecosystem — moving, creating, and reflecting alongside projectALCHEMY artists.
