Movement
The body, a fluid and changeable territory. Gravity - our constant. Searching for articulation, freedom of movement and elastic springload.
Movement Research.
Tuesday Class
This class brings together several strands of inquiry. How I train my body. How we generate movement material that has identity and performance potential. How we explore principles of this movement material.
The signature of this class is GravityMotion, which I have developed over the last 1 5 years, and also offer as yoga inspired work.
This class is for participants of all ages - professional or not - anyone who loves movement. The level is not necessarily suitable for beginners, but is accessible to all those who are already moving with their bodies.
