[class description]
The first hour of morning class will unpack the use of the body's most human patterns, such as crawling, rolling, running, and falling through space. We'll research these patterns with the goal of promoting the most anatomically efficient pathways for ease of movement, thus extending the reach of our bodies. The class is inspired by the principles of the Feldenkrais method and the Axis syllabus approach.
The second hour of class will focus on Vertigo dance company's repertoire. Vertigo Dance Company (Israel), established by Noa Wertheim and Adi Shaal, has developed a distinct artistic language promoting social and community awareness through contemporary dance. Vertigo Dance Company's repertoire permeates with their holistic and spiritual movement approach creating a collage of intricate singular dance sagas inviting viewers and co-creators on an exciting and challenging enchanted journey.
Booking is essential as the class has limited spaces.
