Improvisation is a skill cultivated to partner with each moment with a receptive and instinctual body. This class focuses on challenging physical investigations that break open our ability to listen to the mythical inner world, the environment and each other.

The body is an instrument that may be fine-tuned to access one's movement voice and sensitize kinesthetic perception. Dances arise from the stories that are held in our bodies; collective memories, experiences and inner states of being.

This comprehensive training includes work on the floor, self-acupressure, and challenging yet adaptable movement sequences.
