Permission to Move invites you into an inclusive contemporary dance workshop led by Bonnie Williams and Emma Stokes, the creative force behind DOWNPOUR co. Inspired by their latest work in development, PERMISSION., this workshop explores movement as a way to connect, create, and express who we are.

Together, we'll dive into contemporary dance, improvisation, composition, and playful creative tasks that encourage curiosity, connection, and storytelling through the body. Explore how movement can communicate joy, intimacy, belonging, pleasure, and the freedom to take up space.

Designed for all bodies, identities, and experience levels, this welcoming workshop celebrates that there is no right or wrong way to move. Whether you're a professional performer, an emerging artist, a curious mover, or someone who's always wanted to try contemporary dance, you'll be encouraged to discover your own creative voice in a supportive, sensory-friendly, and accessible environment.

Come move, connect, create, and experience the collaborative process behind PERMISSION.
