What do Claire and Alisa bring to the Table today?
Perhaps they are 'tabling' their issues?
Do they like to shop at 'Sur le Table'
Maybe they are looking at the 'table of contents'?
Or are they discussing the 'Periodic Table of Elements'?
Actually I think that they are working on 'Navigating the Hallway'!
See what they serve at their Table
November 17th, and 18th, when we perform 'Navigating the Hallway' at CORE Studio
Today is Food Day!
Today is FOOD DAY and it is very appropriate that right now Sue is in Conway, Arkansas as part of The Moving Toward Health Project, CORE’s long-term collaboration with the University of Central Arkansas. The mission of MTH is to use dance to talk about health and to raise awareness of body image, healthy lifestyle and disordered eating. For the next few days she is meeting with faculty and staff of UCA and the Conway Public School system and members of the Conway Regional Health and Fitness Center. With this project we are embodying the arts' ability to engender communication and to facilitate change in the context of social issues. We are engaging the Conway community through meetings, workshops and forums and by creating and performing a new dance work that will premiere in Conway in February, 2012 during National Eating Disorders Awareness week. Stay tuned for more details!

Our Salon tomorrow will be exploring the ideas of shared space, compromise, and the components that are inherent in cohabitation.
Below is a link to a podcast that helped to shape some of the work you will see tomorrow.

Spittin' lyrics
bounce
flick
shake
move
groove
...breathe.
feet not lifting
from the paper,
repeat; don't refrain.
bounce
flick
shake
move, groove.
such generic names
in a non-judgmental game.
we all nee labels to list as we:
make and shake
move and groove...
get into a groove like Madonna did.
fearless
angsty
breathe:
breathe through the angst, break through the angst
the bounce
the quake
the shake...
and just dance.
break down and dance
break through and dance...
and I didn't say but, I said and.
bounce
flick
shake
move and groove
break down and through
and
dance.

Breaking into the Bayou
We, CORE Performance Company, return to the Bayou City Art Festival with the premier of BRINK:BREAK::BROKE:?.
In this new work, we find inspiration through the act of the ‘break-through,' as well as the featured artist of the 2011 Downtown Bayou City Arts Festival!
We will yet again encourage situations of hilarity between the audience and dancers, stimulating dialogue between audience and performers while bringing a sense of whimsy, frivolity and off-kilter movement to the Festival.
Performances will take place throughout the Festival grounds on October 8th & 9th, initiating at the HAA performance stage at 1:45 p.m. each day, and concluding at 4:00 PM. For more information, visit www.COREdance.org.
By the way, we at CORE would love to know who left the chocolate in the downstairs refrigerator.
Updates to the space
We've gotten some new decals for the doors to Decatur Square. Both the studio and office doors now have these signs to identify them (hopefully making it easier for folks to find where they need to go!)
Over this past weekend they installed new laminate flooring in the office space in the back hallway and kitchen area. This will work much better for clean up in the kitchen space, and it means we have our very own little dance floor right here in the office! :)
We also have a new awning in the back over the door to the studio from our parking space. It should keep the rain off better than the old covering that was removed earlier this year, which actually ended short of the wall and therefore dumped the rain right on you as you went through the threshold! And hasn't Rose done a great job with the planters too? They look nice, don't they?
