- **Event Name**: Fluid Forms: Land Workshop
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 22 Nov, 2025 at 10:00 am – Sun, 23 Nov, 2025 at 02:00 pm

Join us for a two-day workshop at the Finnish Hall where we will train and tune the available body — soft and alert, grounded and responsive, capable of shifting directions with clarity and ease. Through partnering scores and improvisational frameworks, we will explore principles that support fluid mechanics and functional pathways to deepen connection and amplify choice.

From November 22 - 23, 10am -2pm, we will:

- Engage in a dance of attunement.

- Investigate what it means to develop a grounded and released ‘ready’ body

- Discover pathways to soften into the floor.

- Build channels through the body — weaving, threading, and traversing high-activation environments.

- Practice scores that stimulate agility and the ability to move from high activation back to quiet presence.

- Negotiate appropriate tension that allows for adaptive response-ability.

- Practice cycling energy through our own bodies, through others, through the earth.


scores will ask:

How do we give each other ground in lush, risky, or unstable scenarios?

How can improvisation become problem-solving in motion?

How do we modulate our attention from point to periphery?

What new pathways emerge when we are asked to stay ready — responsive, porous, and un-fixed?

By the end of the workshop, participants will have trained the body in fluid mechanics: the dynamic use of tension, able to return to quiet, and always ready to activate, connect, and co-create.

About the Facilitators:

Kriss( they/them ) is a contemporary movement artist, aquatic dancer, and transdisciplinary maker. Their love for disorientation has inspired them to dance suspended off bridges, free fall into the depths of the sea, and plummet into hundreds of bodies over the many years of practicing contact improvisation. Through their various movement muses, they are constantly asking, “ How can I be in the most available state to receive and respond to a constantly changing environment?” Their current research spirals in and out of the process of re-membering, life cycles , and embodied resistance.

Kriss received their B.S. from UC Davis in Neurobiology, Physiology, and Behavior and then studied Expressive Arts Therapy At the Tamalpa Institute. They studied contemporary dance in Berlin and Tanzfabrik Schule and are an Axis Syllabus Teacher Candidate. Their aquatic dance is shaped by their practice in free diving as well as aquatic therapy techniques of Janzu and Fluid Presence. Currently they freelance as a dancer and teacher locally and internationally, as well as advocate for safe housing for survivors of domestic violence at Gum Moon in SF Chinatown.Their work as a dancer and teacher has been received in Germany, France, Slovakia, and Hungary, Costa Rica, and across the SF Bay Area. 



Asha (he/they)  is an integrative bodyworker, aquatic therapist, SEP (somatic experiencing practitioner), facilitator and dancer with a somatic oriented approach to guiding the body into functional fluidity. He strives towards presencing ever deepening levels of embodiment and somatic freedom and integrity. As a dancer/mover, his movement practice has been shaped by many influences, but is predominantly informed by Axis Syllabus, Contact Improvisation, functional movement, contemporary dance, Playfight and aquatic dance. Through his practice and teachings, he hopes to support the development of functional fluidity, a reliable connection to the ground, subtle listening, and presence in moments of disorientation.

Asha earned his BA from Hampshire College in integrative psychology, medical anthropology, and cognitive science, and his CMT from Mckinnon Body Therapy Center. His passion for aquatic therapy led him to study Aguahara and Fluid Presence in Brazil, Mexico, and Spain. He is a certified DanceAbility teacher, Aguahara practitioner and Freediver. His somatic work is informed by his Somatic Experiencing Practitioner training and Gabor Mate's Compassionate Inquiry Method. He offers trauma-informed bodywork, and somatic experiencing sessions through the psychedelic-assisted-therapy clinic Sage Integrative Health in Berkeley, Ca, and co-facilitates legal psychedelic retreats in the Netherlands with Kiyumi.
