ABSTRACT
In this chapter I reflect on a workshop led in Berlin in 2014 and my position as a non-disabled, Jewish artist traversing the fields of dance and disability. By including the voices of workshop participants, I reveal how an embodied approach to learning prepares us for our lives in the world and indeed has the capacity to repair and renew our connection to the world we live in. I present a model of the arts that is both educative and regenerative but one that seems increasingly usurped by industry-driven curriculum design that threatens to outweigh and eclipse artistic exploration.
