On a late Wednesday afternoon in Colgate's Ryan dance studio, a dozen students were gathered on the floor in a circle, intensely deconstructing a short video clip they had just watched, of a frenetic, kinesthetic scene that was part dance, part theater, part music.

The students -- dancers, singers, actors, and one self-described "seeker" -- had come for a workshop with members of the Argentinian experimental dance theater ensemble Grupo Krapp.
