CDW GUEST DANCERS
GEORGIE ARMSTRONG CDW Guest Dancer
Georgie Armstrong, although new to the world of dance and performing but not to the passion of moving her body, had an early introduction to dancing from her mom and sisters in the kitchen while they made dinner. Dance classes came much later, but the joy of dancing was always there. She recently spent a beautiful five weeks in India immersed in contemporary technique and research, expanding greatly in heartfelt creativity and movement. Through this immersion she realized collective, improvisational movement is her preferred way of connecting with others. She now holds space to offer this opportunity of moving in creativity and joy together to the community of Jackson. This year’s UP CLOSE showcase will be her first time performing with CDW, and her second time performing ever, and she is grateful for the opportunity to learn from their incredible artistry.
