Sun and Spine | A Conversation on Health, Nature, and the Body
November 18, 2025
Reflect on the body as a landscape for healing, movement as a practice of connection to self.
The spine connects the body. The sun sustains life. Together, they anchor this conversation at the intersection of health, culture, and nature. Guided by themes in Jacob Jonas The Company’s Nature Sounds While the IV Drips, this is the second part in a trilogy titled Keeping Score, shaped by Bessel van der Kolk’s book The Body Keeps the Score and choreographer Jacob Jonas’s first work post-cancer. This panel gathers health practitioners and cultural leaders to Taliesin West to reflect on the body as a landscape for healing and on movement and art as a practice of connection to both self and environment.
Sun and Spine is presented as part of Jacob Jonas The Company’s residency with Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts and in collaboration with Taliesin West.
