Class description

The class begins with a simple improvisational guide that will bring the dancers from standing to the floor. This is used as a tool to find heaviness in the limbs and connection to gravity. The class continues with dynamic floor sequences to warm up the body, articulate movement, and explore ways in which the floor can trace parts of the body. The sequences will gradually bring the dancers to standing movements, keeping the tracing connection that was built with the floor. A final phrase will be given to the class that explores the balance of speed and expressiveness, as well as the physical extremes of gravity and articulated tracings of the body.
