Liquid Strength
Christal Brown’s “Liquid Strength" (A technique laboratory focused on movement, intention, and analysis) combines the focus and intention of a meditative practice with a series of exercises designed to train the body in articulate expression as well as athletic execution. Brown's class focuses on developing the total artist. Exercises develop alignment, torso and spinal flexibility, clarity of focus, upper and lower body strength and abdominal stability.

Same but Different
Same but Different is a collaboration between Christal Brown and Lida Winfield, exploring their similarities and differences in a cultural commentary on race, age, and gender. 44 years young and recently orphaned, Lida grew up in the North, Christal grew up in the South, both of them grew up inhabiting small towns. Lida is white, Christal is black. As children, Christal was considered a genius and Lida was labeled dumb. At this point in their lives, Lida and Christal have both lived the rigors of being artists, professors, educators, and survivors of life.
Christal and Lida offer workshops connected to Same but Different. Custom designed workshops are also available based on what you think is best for your community. |
