Love Muwwakkil is a freelance performer, teacher, choreographer, writer, and maker. She is the founder of Love Notes in Motion, offering movement workshops and embodied leadership through movement and play. Receiving an MFA in Dance and Social Justice from UT Austin, her work is at the intersection of experimental dance, improvisation, and installation. Using the body as the main vehicle of expression, her work grapples with these questions: what does liberation feel like in my body? How do we navigate and dismantle the imposed colonial archive that lives in our bodies? What strategies can we use to reconnect or resource the inherent liberation in our bodies and instill deep trust of self? What happens when we stop performing liberation and make it a lived experience?
