Queer Dance Workshops are a chance for queer folks of all identities and experiences to connect through dance. Featuring a rotating roster of teachers and dance styles, these workshops are a time to simply dance around joyfully with other queer people. These special workshops will be held outside near Egleston Square in Jamaica Plain.


Our June workshop will feature contemporary dance with Abigail Ripin!


Abigail Ripin (any pronouns) is a rather silly creative person making a home in the Boston area. Abigail likes to make faces, improvise, and most of all build inclusive communities that center play and a sense of belonging. As an educator, Abigail has taught movers ages 3 years old to 83 years old, having taught for The Click, School Moves, Arthur Murray Boston, The Stuttering Association for the Young, and 2Life Communities. Her workshops include collaborative improvisational exercises that she learned from the Pilobolus Summer Workshops and a sprinkling of her own choreography. Abigail is the creative director of Unkempt, a dance theatre project that examines the sociocultural history of body hair removal. Excerpts of Unkempt have been presented at the Salem Arts Festival, Onstage 360, Culture House’s Gilman Square Pop Up, and the Watertown Free Public Library. Come to Abigail’s class ready to laugh and connect with others!


Exact location details will be sent to registrants. Some parking is available. It is about a 10 minute walk from Stony Brook on the Orange Line and near bus stops for busses 42, 22, 44, and 29.
