Quist Method - Nicholas Palmquist | September 27 - October 1, 2026

Workshop

We are proud to announce the fifth edition of Nicholas Palmquist’s workshop, a program developed and refined here at Orsolina28, where the art of taking class meets the art of teaching class. Together, participants will interact with his unique movement language over the course of five days and explore the variety of ways to express the same concepts differently.

In the studio, the focus will be on musicality, self-expression, coordination of movement and energy, inner-dialogue coaching and guided improvisation. Palmquist will apply his Emotional Ergonomics framework, a method designed to include the nervous system of both the student and the teacher in the ecosystem of learning, dancing, and performing.

This workshop is open to everyone: it is designed to welcome an array of backgrounds, levels and ages. All that is required is the stamina for multiple hours of movement a day over the five-day residency.

AGE REQUIREMENT:
18 year-old and older
