As part of her residency at SCDT, Tatyana offered a workshop, Singing The Fulcrum, and presented work TIDAL with collaborators Marisa Clementi, Pareena Lim, Rebeca Medina, Emily Moore, and Jules Skloot.
"It was an absolute dream to be a guest at SCDT. I loved sharing my practice through the workshop and class. Even though both were small, everyone was engaged and it was generative for me. The showing was magical. I wish we could have done another."
