RIVEN RATANAVANH



Fight Flight Freeze Fawn (or, the myth of safety)

Taught at Performance Space December 2022


In this workshop, we play with the ‘fawn’ response to perceived danger — in which we bend over backwards, appease the source of threat, or merge with their wishes and needs.

Through improvisational movement and writing we will collectively tune into ourselves. We will un-merge. We will feel fuller in our bodies and in relationship to each other and find embodied spaces of agency.

No dance experience is required.
