Working Agreements
What is a working agreement? Why and when are they useful? And, more importantly, how do you create one that serves the humanity and needs of all involved?
Good questions! Pam Tzeng is happy to share what they do know: personal learnings, anecdotes, helpful micro-skills and a score for conversation to practice together and take home. All for the sake of highlighting the value and relational possibilities of creating working agreements in the context of dance and interdisciplinary projects and collaborations.
This offering emerges from Pam's ongoing collaboration with Bianca Guimarães de Manuel and their research focused on developing embodied, anti-oppressive ways of making and relating through praxis.
If you have access needs, please be in touch and we would be glad to see what’s possible together.
