Movement Exploration Workshop with Adji Cissoko

Alonzo King LINES Ballet is proud to present this workshop on October 25, made possible through the generosity of Victoria Zitrin, a longtime supporter and cherished member of the LINES Ballet family. Victoria developed this initiative alongside Adji Cissoko and Madeline DeVries, bringing together vision, artistry, and mentorship to make it a reality.

Adji Cissoko will lead the movement workshop, sharing her artistry and firsthand experience of the LINES philosophy directly with participants. Victoria will provide the leadership, mentorship, and sponsorship that have helped bring this experience to life.

Step into LINES Ballet’s process… and join the conversation.

• Find freedom in movement and confidence in leadership.
• Explore the question: How can movement inform my leadership?

Workshop Structure

1. Warm-Up – Prepare the body and mind for movement.
2. Creation – Engage in guided improvisation and choreographic exploration.
3. Discussion – Join a thought-provoking conversation with community leaders.

Workshop Philosophy
This workshop is an opportunity to engage with the artists, thought leaders, and community members in the room. Movement exploration isn’t just about dance technique—it’s about artistic discovery, freedom in movement, and creating space for meaningful conversation.

Through movement and an open-circle discussion, participants will explore what it means to lead in our community and consider how movement can inform how we lead, connect, and move through the world.

Participants are invited to:

• Explore their creativity
• Embrace their artistry
• Build community
• Inspire and encourage one another
• Find freedom in movement and power in leadership
