Movement Meditations, 2021
For Black August 2021, I participated in a collective haiku-writing practice inspired by SpiritHouse North Carolina. In collaboration with a group of dance practitioners, we started to reflect on the prompts using dance and movement. For 30 days, I engaged a daily movement practice: intentionally listening to my body and allowing my witnessing to inspire a haiku. Below are a selection of the movement mediations and haikus that emerged from embodied listening.
