Community classes are BACK in 2024 with AXIS in Motion:
A series of alternating in-person & virtual offerings led by phenomenal AXIS artists.

Our inaugural class will be held in-person at Shotgun Theater Studios in Berkeley, CA at 1201 University Ave 94702. Thanks to support from the California Arts Council, class is FREE to the public.

CLASS DESCRIPTION: Disabled, non-disabled and neurodiverse participants of all experience levels are invited to join AXIS for an accessibility-driven contemporary dance class. We will begin with warmups designed to draw awareness to the full body, before moving on to technique and improvisation exercises that encourage all dancers to respond to the environment and each other with embodied joy.

ACCESS:
• In the interest of COVID safety and access, masks will be required for all participants.
• Shotgun Studios is wheelchair accessible, with ADA accessible bathrooms. There is a small parking lot with one disability designated spot, and additional street parking on University Ave (metered) and in the surrounding neighborhood.
• Live auto-captions through otter.ai provided on screen. If you require ASL Interpretation for this class, please let us know by January 17th.
• Although we cannot guarantee a completely scent-free space, AXIS’ goal is to make our events as fragrance-free as possible. Please do not wear fragrance or scented products when attending this event.
• Please contact us at [email protected] with any questions or concerns.
