Since its inception in 1995, the Zen Monkey Project has been consistently exploring the boundaries of somatic movement education and contemporary dance forms. Our style is rigorous, experimental and alive. Investigating the body, developing dynamic presence, and supporting curiosity are hallmarks of our distinctive synthesis. Our practice draws from a variety of methods and approaches for questioning the body and embodying questions. Our curriculum melds these influences into creative work. As contemporary movement artists we combine a reverence for tradition with respect for the individual's voice. As educators we support the student's current process while presenting them tools for enriching their potential. This intensive invites you to investigate and embody your own working process, learn with a diverse group of artists, and share your experience with others.
