This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about being impossible to ignore.

Stay seated. Stay in control.

Before tricks.
Before speed.
Before trying to impress anyone…

Chair work responds to pacing, pressure, weight, and intention.

The dancers who stand out here aren’t the ones doing the most.


They’re the ones who know how to sit in a moment.

How to shift their weight and make it mean something.

How to slow down without losing attention.
How to turn stillness into tension.

This isn’t about filling space.


It’s about controlling what happens in it.

This series is about that.

Meet Rachel "Baby Owl"

Rachel, known as Baby Owl, is a movement artist known for her grounded, intentional approach to performance.

Her style focuses on pacing, control, and making even the smallest moments feel deliberate. Instead of rushing through movement, she teaches dancers how to slow down, stay present, and build tension in a way that actually holds attention.

Her work blends sensuality with structure… giving dancers something they can return to, refine, and grow from over time.

In this series, she shares the way she approaches chair work,  not as a prop, but as something you move with.

This is for you if:

You’re tired of rushing through your movement just to get to the next thing.

You know you don’t need more tricks… you need more control over how you’re perceived.

You’ve felt your movement has something in it, but you don’t always know how to make people feel it.

You want to slow down without disappearing.

You’re ready to build presence, not just skill.

You want your transitions, your pacing, and your stillness to actually mean something.

You’ve been craving a style that feels grounded, sensual, and usable… not just impressive.

THE SERIES

A 2-part chair performance experience designed to shift how you move, not just what you do.

 

​Most people treat the chair like a prop.
This series teaches you how to make it part of the performance.

 

PART I — TAKE YOUR TIME

Tuesday, June 16th · 7PM EST

This is where we slow everything down.

You’ll learn how to move through choreography

without rushing past the parts that actually matter.


How to let transitions breathe.


How to build tension without overfilling the space.

This class focuses on pacing, musicality, and control…
so your movement doesn’t just happen, it registers with the room.

PART II — TRICK PLAY

Thursday, June 18th · 7PM EST

Now we expand.

You’ll explore how to layer tricks, levels, and

pathways into your movement without losing intention.


How to create contrast between soft and sharp, still and dynamic.


How to push when it’s time… and pull back when it matters more.

This class focuses on range, texture, and integration…
so your movement feels complete, not disconnected.

WHAT YOU’LL LEAVE WITH

A clearer sense of pacing


More control over how your movement is received


Stronger transitions and performance quality


A chair-based style you can actually return to and build on
