@TGJ April 2017 newsletter

Dear Jammers,

So much exciting stuff to announce! Right, we are cutting to the chase.

Our Dance International Glasgow jam with special guest Robert Anderson is ready to book here: http://www.tramway.org/events/pages/event-details.aspx?EventId=c524e9ea-ff91-4141-942c- It will take place at the Tramway Studio on Saturday 6 May from 11am to 2.30pm. We could not be more excited to have Robert lead a 1 hour class into the jam. He is a very experienced and fun teacher and everyone is welcome, regardless of experience.

Our very own director Penny Chivas and @TGJ facilitators Sara Bizzoca and Jer Reid are showing Decline as part of DIG on Tuesday 25 and Wednesday 26 April at 6.30pm. This is a fabulous chance to see where improvisation techniques lead and to experience a really interesting dance work. Book here: http://www.tramway.org/events/pages/event-details.aspx?EventId=66319c30-c7cf-469f-99ce-a73900e4886d

We changed our June programme around a little to accommodate a modified jan score for the Global Underscore. Last year’s was very well attended and such fun. We will catch the opening and closing small dances with everyone else around the world and we will also highlight some of the key themes of the underscore. Save the date: Saturday 24 June, 4-7.30pm at KPC, only £10!

In May, we are hosting our LONDON month, with Robert Anderson for our DIG Jam and Mark Rietema leading our class and jam on the 26. We are lucky to have such teachers come to Glasgow!

And there is more in the pipeline, a lot more … But we have to leave something for our next newsletter, right?

Below are our next jams in Glasgow, links to other dance classes in Glasgow as well as jams in Edinburgh and London. Nature is opening up for Spring. Come and open your body with us!
