These workouts will guide participants through an exploration of their movement from the observation of body structure as a whole. We will play with research that will help us locate unnecessary physical blockages and tensions, to inform us about our movement patterns and to develop a greater intuition in our improvisation skills and movement functionality.

We will work from the principles of biomechanics and the practice will aim to bring fluidity and a "soft power" to our structure and joints from the application of games and the investigation of various body states. Inspired by concepts from different disciplines such as martial arts, contact and somatic practices, the class invites us to listen to the internal movements of the body and be inspired by them to creatively compose each moment with more sensitivity.

"My interest is in moving away from the urge to do and practice sensitive listening quality, to allow our structure to flow freely in the changing landscapes of dance."
