About Our Classes

The Moving Architects teach and facilitate specialized classes and workshops for students, professionals, and community members who want to move. With community, inclusivity, collaboration, and exploration at its core, offerings range from programming for adults and children, to professional-level training workshops, to visiting artist residencies in schools and universities. Notably, the TMA Community Dance Workshop, offered bi-annually in Northern NJ, supports adult women returning to dance, creating space for renewed exploration, artistry, and performance.
