Trusting the Body: Form, Balance and Letting Go

Course Description

Summary

In this class we pose the questions: How do we create or utilize movement that is meaningful and essential to our dance making? and how does our movement evolve and how do we work with it and direct its potential? We will consider the relevance and importance of how depth and continuity of practice in our various forms can be the basic framework for our evolution as movement makers. We will explore methods of practice that expand the understanding of our instrument, our body, and in turn our movement potential. The relevance and importance of depth and continuity of practice expands the dancer's technique, compositional capacity, and experience. We will consider how we let go of embedded movement patterns that get in the way of allowing new ones to unfold.
