EVOLUTIONARY MOVEMENT™

Come join us every Wednesday morning from 10 - 12 to explore the universal principles of movement that underlie all movement art forms. Using techniques from yoga, dance, Feldenkrais Method, Body-Mind Centering®, Continuum, Bodystorming™, and improvisation, we engage in a process for developing our own personal practices; we find support for living artful lives and making living art. This class will be of interest to dancers, performers, practitioners & teachers of yoga, pilates, martial arts, somatics, bodyworkers, and people who want to try something new.

THE BOUNTIFUL BREATH – We focus on the breath as a source of healing, pleasure, and bliss in both movement and stillness.

"Oh, I thought the classes were great! I've incorporated what you've taught me into my daily practice. I take your classes because what you teach is completely out of my normal range of experience. You show me a different way to see how my body works and then you teach me how to move."

- Annette Homburger
Yoga Teacher
