Teaching
Teaching at Amrita University in Kerala, India for Water Ciphers, a project directed by Kanta Kochhar-Lindgren.
"I particularly enjoy that your classes and processes involve a high level of attention to sensation, whether it's through moving in and out of improvisation and set material, or exploring a physical task, or engaging with specific textures and imagery. More than anything, I've noticed that you bring me into a state of tasting movement, which helps push me out of habitual patterns and find new possibilities in my body. When I dance with you I feel more three-dimensional, as if I have tongues on every surface of my body, on my skin, in my muscles, on my bones." - Jan Trumbauer, dance artist (Seattle)
"I have experienced Beth teaching percolating improvisational ideas that are easy and fulfilling to dive deep into and explore. She is very accessible, caring, encouraging and intelligent. Her directions are thorough, rich and clear. The unique captivating wisdom in her body inspires imagination and often humor in my own." - Belle Wolf, dance artist (Seattle)
