The Holding Project is a

dance company dedicated to exploring the infinite

possibilities of bodies

in motion through movement research and choreographic creation.

​

Based in Portland, Oregon, The Holding Project

has been creating thought-provoking live performance, dance for film, video production, multi-media, and installation work since 2015. The company aims to find pleasure within the effort of movement, exploring gradients between effort and struggle and researching the extremes of energetic physicality alongside the quiet volumes of minute detail. Led by Israeli-born Artistic

Director and Founder Amy Leona Havin, The Holding Project is rooted in improvisational studies and movement exploration techniques, encouraging collaboration and play within the artistic process.
