Another great production by our very own Mara. We are very proud of her!

The finale of Kindling sees dancers 'teaching' a generative AI about dance - and the glitchy imitation that follows is both hilarious and unsettling. Mara Glass emerging from an inflatable pool in a snorkel mask, having just performed ballet moves visible only from the calves down, is the kind of absurdist moment that makes this Glasshouse Dance Collective show so memorable.

Getting excited.
I believe there maybe even some free tickets available. Just reach out and we will organise for you.

Who's planning on coming out to support Mara in her company's first season?

We'll be there with flashing lights. Come join us for what we're sure will be a lovely evening of thought-provoking dance.

Next Friday and Saturday at The Phoenix Theatre in Coniston.

Before You Begin
A brief warning.
This article became considerably larger than originally intended.
When I mentioned that I was working on a piece about the Clamshell exercise, many of you responded with your own thoughts, questions, challenges, and observations. As I explored those ideas, the article continued to grow.
So, if you were one of the people who reached out, this is at least partially your fault.
What began as a discussion about a familiar Pilates exercise gradually became an exploration of anatomy, evidence, motor learning, clinical reasoning, teaching philosophy, and why some muscles seem to attract far more attention than others.
This is not a quick read.
