2019 ORCJ Call for Proposals

NEW THEME:

‘Let us Play: Shaping Community, Celebrating Consent’

Friday, April 19 to Sunday, April 21, 2019

Canada’s National Ballet School, 400 Jarvis St, Toronto, ON


Are you interested in teaching a workshop that will help us to find
elasticity and playfulness in the areas of community and consent? How could
your idea provide a different kind of environment, a laboratory, where
individual learning experiences come together in a shared way?

Some jumping off points:

   - Play with gender roles in the dance. Dance with someone in your own
   gender, then swap, then swap again, etc.
   - Find a partner. How can this not feel like the Farmer in the Dell? Or
   a call to torture?
   - Power dynamics. Who lifts who (big/small, strong/weak, s/he)? Who asks
   who?
   - What would a ‘completely safe’ dance look/feel like? Would anyone come?
   - What would an ‘anything goes’ dance look/feel like? Would anyone come?
   - What are the elements of risk? What are the elements of play? How can
   we integrate these? And should we?

If you have an idea inspired by something you’ve read above or a completely
different idea related to the theme, please submit your proposal (1 page
max) to laurie at lauriejdavis.ca and celiajanemcbride at gmail.com by January
18, 2019 with the following information:

   - Who are you? What is your teaching/facilitating/leadership experience?
   What is your CI experience?
   - What is your idea and how does it relate to ‘playing with community
   and consent’? How will you execute your idea? Do you want a 60, 90 or
   120-minute class? Or do you care?
   - Would you be prepared to repeat the class at another time during the
   weekend?
   - Two references. Who can we talk to about your teaching style?
   - Anything else you think we need to know.
