KWAM Collective is a group of interdisciplinary artists from dance theatre, live performance, sculpture, film and music, based in the UK and Portugal. The collective works with a pool of artists on a project-basis, depending on the context of the work. At the core of KWAM's practice lies a curiosity to explore the potential of bodies through various dimensions: materiality, phenomenology, space as well as politics and sociality. KWAM's artistic projects and community initiatives have been supported by UK organizations including amongst others The Place, East London Dance, ECHO, Redbridge Drama Centre, the Abderrahim Crickmay Charitable Settlement, Royal Philharmonic Society, Arts Council England and Midlands4Cities DTP (AHRC).

EXPRESSIVE BODIES: IMPROVISATION AND CONTEMPORARY DANCE CLASS
June & July 2025
Longfield Hall, South London, SE5 9QY
​
In this class, participants are invited to explore their creative body through a number of embodied practices. We explore individual and group movement facilitated through imaginative instructions based on different themes including introspection, communication, rhythm and playfulness. For us, movement is a way to experiment with the body as a site of sensation, emotion, memory and creativity. We will encourage you to inhabit your body through those various layers.
