Gerry’s work brings people together to share their different body histories and culture through experiencing and appreciating moving together.
Body Space Imagination Workshop
This workshop will offer an opportunity to work with physical bodies in different spaces and landscapes. The aim is to find juxtaposition of form and space, and try to take risks within that, make surprising interventions, and engage with a site. Gerry guides participants to respond through the body, and create a changing visual image in space and spaces.
The Space Between Workshop
Gerry Has developed a workshop focusing on the relationship with Aerial Dance in ‘The Space Between’ and creating choreography with Aerial and Circus performance. This workshop develops ways of moving that challenges techniques, styles and processes, aiming to find some common ground in the ‘space between’ air and floor.
Gerry is now working with HooT (Sound Move), as a dance development worker, creating movement opportunities for people with Mental Health needs. Visit www.hootmusic.co.uk
