SUMMARY:The Art of Kunt-Fu: Intro to Queer Combat and Dance with Devante Love
DESCRIPTION:Blending spiritualized martial arts\, queer qigong\, voguing\, and Afro-Asian indigenous healing philosophy\, this workshop teaches self-defense disguised as a queer dance. The workshop thinks with Ball culture as a site where dance builds resilience against white cis-heteropatriarchy. Movers also learn breathing patterns and sensory awareness techniques to enter spaces with heightened confidence and courage to be queer. Moving beyond the machismo of traditional martial arts\, this practice centers a cunty femme expressivity that empowers queer bodies to protect each other. All bodies\, abilities\, and experience levels welcome. Modifications offered throughout to emphasize principles over perfect form.

SUMMARY:Blind Date with a Ballet
DESCRIPTION:YOU’RE GOING ON A BLIND DATE… WITH A BALLET.\nAt this special Pointeworks event\, guests will select between Ballet A or Ballet B—without knowing exactly what they’ll see. Each choice leads to a distinct rehearsal experience\, revealing a different side of the creative process. \nYou’ll spend 45 minutes inside the studio observing a live working rehearsal\, then join both groups afterward for a relaxed reception with drinks\, conversation\, and the chance to meet the artists. \nThis is not a performance—it’s a window into the process.\nAnd no two experiences will be the same. \nLimited to 20 guests total\n10 guests per studio \nHOW IT WORKS\n\n\nChoose Ballet A or Ballet B when reserving your ticket \n\n\nAttend a 45-minute live rehearsal viewing \n\n\nJoin a post-rehearsal reception with drinks \n\n\nConnect with artists and fellow guests through guided conversation \n\n\nCHOOSE YOUR MATCH\nBALLET A — THE SLOW BURN\nA quiet tension. A conversation that never quite lands. \nThis duet lives in the space between what is felt and what is spoken—subtle\, layered\, and deeply human. Every glance and gesture carries weight\, building a sense of connection that is as restrained as it is charged. \nMood: intimate\, intense\, emotionally nuanced\nFor you if: you’re drawn to subtlety\, complexity\, and what lingers beneath the surface \nBALLET B — THE SPARK\nA connection that ignites instantly. \nThis pas de deux is driven by young love and emotional intensity. It captures the thrill of being pulled toward someone with undeniable force—where everything feels heightened and nothing is held back. \nMood: passionate\, impulsive\, sweet\nFor you if: you want something dynamic\, emotionally charged\, and impossible to ignore \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\nPay What You Can\nSuggested donation: $30 per person \nYour support helps Pointeworks provide paid opportunities for dancers and continue creating new work.

SUMMARY:Primal Physics with Meesh and Toni
DESCRIPTION:Primal Physics intertwines the physics of rope and dance\, developed with the intention of connecting you to your most grounded & feral expression. \nThis workshop begins with participants being gently guided from their DanceOfSelf to the DanceOfConnection throughout the workshop. As we connect with our bodies\, we will integrate rope as an anchor and amplifier\, enhancing sensation and creativity. Through exploration of a multi-wear chest harness\, “The MicroDance”\, isolations & intuitively guided movement\, we will cultivate feelings of aliveness\, impulsivity\, and presence and physically strengthen and increase mobility of our bodies\, to give way to our most primal expression! \nA wide variety of music genres will be explored as we move energy. The dance and rope will be your lifelines\, as we magnify your internal world and remove the masks of social conditioning. Our practice will collectively evolve as we build presence within the whole space\, creating a throughline for one cooperative dance. \nThis class will include skills to take with you:\n• Rudimentary rope safety and building blocks\n• Simple chest harness\n• Individual and group movement practices \nPrimal Physics is suitable for ALL LEVELS of dance + rope experience. Modifications and variations will be provided and encouraged. This is a SuryaSoul offering.

SUMMARY:LAB: Graham-based Modern (Beg)
DESCRIPTION:This beginning level modern dance workshop is rooted in Graham technique. We begin with a short warm-up to help lengthen and ground our bodies. We then introduce the codified Graham exercises\, beginning with floor exercises – bounces\, breathings\, spirals in 3s & 6s\, seated contractions\, deep stretches\, turns around the back\, pleadings\, etc. Transitioning to standing\, we move to center work – plies\, brushes\, changes around the ankle\, and a center combination. As time allows\, we’ll end with exercises and phrases across the floor – triplets\, prances\, jumps\, etc. Through focus on technique\, we’ll develop strength and deeper understanding of Graham technique\, which has its own unique movement language. \nThis class is geared towards both beginning dancers and more experienced dancers who are new to Graham technique. \n*Recommendation – If you have difficulty sitting on the floor with your back straight up and legs extended out in front\, we recommend that you bring a yoga mat or towel/blanket. These items may be folded and placed under the seat for floor exercise modifications.

SUMMARY:Nocturnes: Five Ballets
DESCRIPTION:Brilliant\, bold\, and not to be missed—Pointeworks returns to The Conrad this summer with Nocturnes: Five Ballets\, an evening of extraordinary dance and live music. Curated by Artistic Director Sophie Williams\, Season Three brings together world-class artists from across the country in a dynamic program choreographed entirely by women. \nThe performance features two world premieres: Jacquelyn Long’s new ballet\, Moving Forces\, with an original score by award-winning composer Katie Jenkins\, performed live by virtuosic pianist Joshua Mhoon and violinist Julia Choi\, and a new creation by acclaimed choreographer Keerati Jinakunwiphat\, a 2023 Princess Grace Award winner and the first Asian American woman commissioned to create for New York City Ballet. \nThe heart of Nocturnes lies in three ballets that illuminate love in its many forms. Audiences will experience the Northern Hemisphere premiere of Andrea Schermoly’s Romeo and Juliet\, a poetic reimagining of Shakespeare’s timeless romance; Dani Rowe’s Unsaid\, staged by the legendary Sofiane Sylve and hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle as “another dark heartbreaker” that earned a standing ovation; and the return of Reka Gyulai’s Transcendence\, which enthralled audiences last season with its sweeping imagery and powerful exploration of love’s endurance. \nWith groundbreaking premieres\, richly imagined love stories\, and commanding contemporary works\, Nocturnes expands the boundaries of ballet—making dance more relevant\, immersive\, and electrifying than ever.

SUMMARY:Nocturnes: Five Ballets
DESCRIPTION:Brilliant\, bold\, and not to be missed—Pointeworks returns to The Conrad this summer with Nocturnes: Five Ballets\, an evening of extraordinary dance and live music. Curated by Artistic Director Sophie Williams\, Season Three brings together world-class artists from across the country in a dynamic program choreographed entirely by women. \nThe performance features two world premieres: Jacquelyn Long’s new ballet\, Moving Forces\, with an original score by award-winning composer Katie Jenkins\, performed live by virtuosic pianist Joshua Mhoon and violinist Julia Choi\, and a new creation by acclaimed choreographer Keerati Jinakunwiphat\, a 2023 Princess Grace Award winner and the first Asian American woman commissioned to create for New York City Ballet. \nThe heart of Nocturnes lies in three ballets that illuminate love in its many forms. Audiences will experience the Northern Hemisphere premiere of Andrea Schermoly’s Romeo and Juliet\, a poetic reimagining of Shakespeare’s timeless romance; Dani Rowe’s Unsaid\, staged by the legendary Sofiane Sylve and hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle as “another dark heartbreaker” that earned a standing ovation; and the return of Reka Gyulai’s Transcendence\, which enthralled audiences last season with its sweeping imagery and powerful exploration of love’s endurance. \nWith groundbreaking premieres\, richly imagined love stories\, and commanding contemporary works\, Nocturnes expands the boundaries of ballet—making dance more relevant\, immersive\, and electrifying than ever.

SUMMARY:ChoreoLAB: Merging Influences
DESCRIPTION:ChoreoLABs are workshops that explore the art of dance making. We introduce and explore various choreographic tools that help dance makers generate their own authentic movement\, find new ways to synthesize phrases\, and hone compositional skills. Open to dance artists of all genres and levels\, these workshops encourage participants to develop their own choreographic voice. \nIn ChoreoLAB: MERGING INFLUENCES\, we’ll play with our choreographic toolbox while looking through the lens of heritage and culture. We’ll explore movement generation\, using various tools and prompts. We’ll look at ways to manipulate our own movements. We’ll create short phrases and share them\, and then discuss our outcomes and learnings. Together\, we’ll explore how cultural identity can influence our dance making\, regardless of our practiced dance form. \nThings to Bring \n\nPen/pencil and notebook (or something to take notes on).\nSuggest a phone or something to video record yourself\, but not required.\nWater and snacks – we will have short breaks.\nWear comfortable clothing and be prepared for movement.\nNo outside shoes in the studio – bare feet\, socks\, or studio only shoes.\nJoyce Lien Kushner is of Taiwanese descent and will be using examples from her heritage. If interested in exploring your own cultural heritage\, please bring:\n\nshort poem or literature passage from your heritage\nlinks to videos of traditional dances from your heritage (2 videos should suffice)

SUMMARY:Relational Body – Contact Improvisation workshop-
DESCRIPTION:Argentinian teacher Jonathan Brussolo is traveling through San Diego and we have a special opportunity to learn from him! \nFrom Jonathan\n“In these classes we will consider our attention as a resource that allows us a finer and more sensitive awareness of our bodies\, and from which we can explore the different systems and structures of our anatomy\, awakening greater presence and awareness in our physicalities… \nwhat we feel becomes present. \nWe will explore how refining our attention can establish a dialogue between physical sensations and relational perception. In the constant dialogue between internal and external perception\, perhaps the distinction between them can begin to dissolve. \nFrom this basis we will enter into movement\, the encounter with space\, and bodies as spaces of dance. Inhabiting ourselves\, we will allow ourselves to be danced by the encounter. We will see dance and contact as a river of information that enters and leaves our bodies\, connecting us with the planet and its inherent forces.” \nhttps://forms.gle/Qfh3RoXYeeNgdmQ29

SUMMARY:POP IN / POP OUT: Beginner/Open Level Contemporary Partnering with Ilyana and Iverson
DESCRIPTION:Beginner/Open Level Contemporary Partnering is a partnering workshop rooted in touch and improv. We will take a non-gender focused approach to partnering rooted in mutual weight sharing between both parties. This class is available to dancers who have worked together before as well as those looking to get into partnering. (feel free to come without a partner!) \nClass will begin with a brief warmup\, followed by dedicated time to pair up and discuss consent with your partners before we move into the partnering portion of class. We’ll move and groove together in a guided touch-based improv session before moving into a series of set exercises based in weight sharing\, designed to gain trust and comfortability with your partner. Feel free to bring a notebook\, as we’ll take some time mid-workshop to share our thoughts. We’ll end class with a final combo and another opportunity to reflect and share our thoughts and feelings!\n \nIlyana Carlee (she/her) \n\nOriginally from Dayton\, Ohio\, Ilyana Carlee is a performer\, choreographer\, and teacher in San Diego. Since a young age\, she has trained at various studios\, her most influential training being under DeShona Pepper Robertson at Stivers School for the Arts. Ilyana continued her dance training and choreographic exploration at Howard University\, earning a BFA in Dance. Since moving to San Diego in 2023\, she has trained at DISCO RIOT\, Malashock Dance\, and San Diego Dance Theater\, and has performed with DISCO RIOT\, San Diego Dance Theater and NACHMO. Most recently\, she was an intern in the (R)Evolution Artist Program with DISCO RIOT\, and is currently a founding collaborator with Negative Space Dance Collective. Her art is deeply influenced by her experiences as a Black woman. She is inspired by both her ancestral lineage and surroundings\, creating work inspired by love\, grief\, community\, and the Black experience. \nIverson “Nosrevi” Harding (he/him) \nIverson “Nosrevi” Harding has been moving and creating through physicalization for thirteen years. He is trained in an abundance of styles not limited to ballet\, modern\, contemporary\, tap and hip hop. Graduating from Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle\, WA circa spring of 2024 he has evolved in his personal style which is a mixture of hip hop\, contemporary and tap dance. His movement has a melancholy yet sharp qualities that excite the satisfaction factor made in one’s eyes and brain. His teaching style is based more on having an understanding of the music so therefore he can translate the quality of movement better and if that doesn’t help\, he’ll try and find a hundred other ways to get you to succeed.
