TECHNIQUE CLASS
The class is release-based. It begins with a slow body-work warm-up which accelerates into a dynamic floor-work phrase that travels the room. Physical principles such as isolation, opposition and weight-shift are presented as the class continues with vertical exercises combined with floor-work. These exercises ask the participants to be aware of different initiations of movement and the organization of the body as it moves. The class ends with a dance-phrase that puts in context some of the technical elements introduced during class.
