Save the date – 2023 SubletSeries CO-OP @ HERE!
Mark your calendars as BodyStories is excited to announce that we will be performing at the HERE Arts Centre as a part of their SubletSeries: Co-Op program! We will be premiering a new work, Inside Out, an evening-length dance work that explores personal identity and healing from trauma.
In 2022, the U.S. saw a marked increase in identity-based violence related to gender and sexual orientation. As a female-presenting, queer, non-binary artist, I am highly alert to the pains experienced by female-identifying and LGBTQIAP+ communities from the increased instances of identity-based violence related to gender and sexual orientation. As a company, we are focused on building a community that provides a safe space for all marginalized communities to express themselves, particularly LGBTQIAP+, Inside/Out explores the complex, individualized journeys of navigating this societal trauma. It illustrates the power of the self against these discriminatory actions, while also articulating the ways in which our identities are forever altered as a result. Our dynamic choreography moves the audience through these journeys through intricate movement phrases. The piece moves through phases of calm and chaos, culminating in a sense of breath, power, and vitality. The work will focus on uplifting and affirming womxn, individuals with a uterus, and members of the LGBTQIAP+ community. The work is choreographed by Teresa Fellion with 2 sections by collaborator Eddie Stockton. It features dancers Leann Gioia, Eddie Stockton, Teresa Fellion, and Arianna Stendardo.

Skimming the Surface: Expressive Movement Workshops
Get excited… Valerie Green is coming to MAR+RC in April!!
Skimming the Surface: Expressive Movement Workshops will be taught by Valerie on April 22nd-23rd. These workshops will help participants release blocked energy causing stress or discomfort in one’s life, and are designed to integrate movement, feelings, and emotions. Our time together will feature gentle expressive movement exercises leading participants on their own personal movement journey within a nurturing and safe group environment. When using the language of movement rather than words, a different kind of image or emotion may arise, words label what we know, expressive movement reveals the unknown. Repressed emotions can shut down the immune system causing pain and illness. This workshop aims to find a physical expression to the feelings, whereby a healing process can begin, and will help you find grounding in inhabiting the power of your own presence.
Along with the workshops, there will be a Community Connection Pot Luck Lunch where participants will get a chance to relax, unwind, and build community while eating yummy food together!
There will also be a showing of “Time Capsule – A Physical Documentary”, which is a dance film, directed and choreographed by Green, eight solos physically trace emotional experiences of the COVID-19 pandemic, against a backdrop of iconic NYC landscapes. A dynamic interplay of beauty, strength, and resilience, & “Time Capsule” is a testament to the faith we have in our City, its vast infrastructure, the delicate spirits that inhabit it, and the tender terrains we all hold within.

Ongoing Youth Classes
Youth Dance Intensive
BodyStories is thrilled to offer summer classes for mixed level juniors ages 4 and up! Pulling from our Dance Curriculum, we’ll explore different kinds of techniques and styles including contemporary, hip-hop, jazz, tap, ballet, modern, Central and West African, salsa, swing, and musical theater, as well as expose children to movements from our own repertory. All of this will create a foundation for dance from which students can learn how to create their own movements. In addition to dance instruction, students will also have fun using online platforms such as TikTok, iMovie, Zoom, and Triller to create their own dance music videos and films.
Classes are from 12-4PM EST. We will start each one with a fun yoga flow and dance warm-up to get kids energized. We’ll then have a technical skills dance class, followed by a lunch break. We come back to learn and create some choreography, and end the day taking what we’ve learned and making a dance music video based off of it!
Students can drop-in to take whichever classes they want during each day, with the exception that choreography classes require a full week commitment.
The Virtual Dance Experience Summer Intensive
An intensive for pre-professional and professional dancers (ages 17+). The BodyStories Summer Intensive continues our mission to unleash creativity and empowerment in dancers, now in the virtual world! Dancers will rediscover joy in movement, break through self-imposed mental barriers, find the humor in the body, and develop a deeper understanding of the relationship between art and activism.
Classes will be held from 12-5PM EST each day. Every day will start with a group check-in, to see where we’re at emotionally, physically, and mentally for the day, followed by a yoga flow and dance warm-up. We will have a technique class to refresh our foundations in dance and challenge ourselves with new approaches to movement, and then break at noon for an hour long lunch. We come back for an improvisation and choreography class in the afternoon which is led by Teresa Fellion for movement and writing, Cecly Placenti will join us for some of our writing portions as well, and John Yannelli and Muriel Louveau will join us for musical collaborations. In these classes, we will also discuss the current social climate and reflect on work that needs to be done to reshape and move forward. Participants will journal thoughts and abstract ideas from what they’ve written as inspiration for movement. Together, we will discover the physical language for deeper emotions from these writings, and they will be partnered with music explorations. Each day ends with some breathing and stretching exercises and group reflection to cool down, digesting of the day and looking forward to the next one.
Students can drop-in to take whichever classes they want during each day, with the exception that choreography and improvisation classes require a full week commitment.

Triskelion Arts Presents: BodyStories: Teresa Fellion Dance 2018
This Fall, BodyStories: Teresa Fellion Dance will be presenting an evening of repertory at Triskelion Arts, including a 2018 world premiere!
When:
This performance will feature the NYC premiere of the beloved Bodystories piece The Warm-Up as well as the world premiere of reeling→ healing. The Warm-Up (originally performed at Southampton Arts Center with support from NY Community Trust) explores the role of dance as both exercise and art and showcases original music by John Yannelli and Glenn Alexander. reeling → healing is a new piece investigating the frustration and helplessness that can occur as a result of the constant barrage of misled policies and hatred infecting our country. Original music by Kevin Keller and costumes by Nina Katan add to the sense of urgency and need for community, working in tandem with the choreography to immerse the audience in a fully-formed world. As an intimate community, the performers and audience find a way to connect via “The Emotional Architecture of a Bridge,” an original concept drawn and created by Teresa Fellion that involves audience interaction.

Premiere of Mantises Movement and Sound Installation
“As Summer Streets participants are led by guides through their journey, they will experience new textures, microcosms, and characters and have the opportunity to interact with the seven performers. With each new phase of the installation comes a new imaginative and physical scenery change. The plantings, water features, paving, and benches found within the plaza animate the passageways the dancers take through the internal gardens of Federal Plaza that lend themselves to the imaginative world of The Mantises Are Flipping W.3.”–
