Second Saturday with Amos Lans
Oakland, CA
Saturday, July 11, 2026, 1:00-3:30 p.m.
Please join us in embracing the unknown with all the support, play, and ease of InterPlay forms. Amos Lans will invite the whole body to explore and connect in movement, story, and sound for this afternoon session. We'll venture into adventures through Dance/Talk stories, gesture choirs, and a variety of contact movement, including blindfolded dances.
This class is part of the Oakland InterPlay second Saturday Leader Showcase series. Come join us for two and a half hours of connection, expression, and play on the second Saturday of the month. Come to as many or as few as you like. Each month a different Bay Area leader will guide the group, using the forms of InterPlay and the wisdom of the body to facilitate connection to others and ourselves in the grounded, playful ways that InterPlay makes easy. These workshops are great for any level of InterPlay experience, whether you are new to InterPlay or have been to the studio many times.
COVID Protocol.: Our goal is to provide a safe and welcoming environment for people with a wide variety of health situations. Please stay home if you’ve been sick in the last five days (we'd love to have you come another time). We welcome mask-wearing during class (it's optional), and we run an air purifier in our high-ceilinged space. If you have questions, please reach out to us via the leader email links below.
Transportation and parking: Our lovely studio is in urban Oakland. If driving, we recommend parking on major streets like Grand Avenue and Telegraph Avenue (and not 23rd) and not leaving things in your vehicle. If you pay for parking with the Park Mobile app it will be easy to add more to the meter virtually. We are also close to BART and several bus lines and protected bike paths. There is good bike parking on Telegraph, and you're also welcome to bring your bike inside the studio.
Are you a certified InterPlay leader or working on your certification who would like to lead as part of this series? Please reach out to Amos Lans or John Diller via the links in the Second Saturday series post. We welcome local and visiting leaders.
