This workshop invites artists of all levels into a rigorous, unfettered creative laboratory where physical training meets artistic inquiry. Fueled by an eclectic, soulful playlists, each class is equal parts workout, moving meditation, improvisation and performance practice.

Rather than learning choreography, participants explore improvisation, inventive movement scores, and collaborative composition to unlock imagination, deepen storytelling, and cultivate their distinct stage presence. Drawing on over 20 years of developing her interdisciplinary dance-making methodology, Klaymoon guides artists to discover their authentic voice. Rooted in courageous play, ensemble building, and multidisciplinary storytelling, the workshop also offers development in spoken word, theatrical expression, and optional reflective journal exercises outside of rehearsal for artists interested in a holistic approach to creative practice.

Drop-ins are welcome! Each class stands alone as a dynamic movement experience and full-body workout, while the full series offers the opportunity to deepen your artistic practice and perform in an original collaborative piece. 

$20 Drop-in

The Movement Lab

6:00–8:00 PM

Home Bass
2355 Broadway, Suite 407 Oakland, CA


A dance support space created for movement artists to practice, experiment, and learn in community. Each session is open to students of all dance styles/forms and is designed to be a collaborative mentorship environment for personalized development as a performer, choreographer, freestyler, battler, or simply a practitioner. Participants will have the opportunity to explore movement and receive thoughtful feedback, encouragement, and guidance from both peers and facilitators. My intention is to explore movement together and find our own access points to freedom and liberation in our dance

Sliding scale $25-35

(Please note: we are committed to making this space accessible; no one will be turned away for lack of funds.)
