The Underscore was developed by Nancy Stark Smith in the 90's. It is a spacious experience shared by the participants which can spark surprising kinesthetic and compositional improvisation and Contact Improvisation within this defined framework.

In the morning we will have enough time to not only talk through the Underscore but also explore ways in and qualities of a few of the least understood phases of the practice. There will be time for questions and wonderings.

I invited Anne as she is studying and practicing the Underscore for many years and spent a lot of time with Nancy before she passed away. When I first witnessed Anne talking through the Underscore, I could feel how all the phases she was mentioning immediately landed deeper in my own felt sense understanding of the practice. Anne can truly represent the Underscore in an embodied way through practicing the practice for many years.

When I asked her to write a bit about what insights or other meaningful endeavors this practice has invoked in her over time, she wrote me this: "I think the Underscore is a meaningful practice for people that enjoy, see the value of it and have fun when they go deeply into something, appreciate duration &amp; who have a little bit of an appetite for rigour. I don't really want to try to sell this beyond what it is, I feel the practice itself is profound."
