Chayah Artistic Residency is a two week artist in residence opportunity for dance choreographers and researchers. The artist will give life to a new work through their unique research process with the company members of CPR Dance: Inhale Movement as well as engage with engaging with their pedagogy practice for the community and the pre-professional dancers of the Berrien County Dancers program.

CPR Dance: Inhale Movement is the premiere contemporary dance company in Southwest Michigan. We value bringing community access to professional dance, while sharing collaborative and engaging opportunities to connect, view, and participate in movement.

CPR Dance: Inhale Movement proposes movement as fundamental to existence as breath. Breathing life, moving life, with attendance towards one another. By realizing interests in health, wellness, mindfulness, movement, breath, meditation, film, justice, and friendship and that it was possible to permeate into performance, choreographic, and teaching artistries. A way to further succinctly identify and communicate the values of wandering through intangible movement, lost and found, with well-being and care as a fulcrum that doesn’t shy away from but presses into reflective evaluative works.
