Full Body Practice: Groove + Strength
Level: Beginner–Intermediate | Ages: 16+
Move and sweat through the mechanics of sensation, distribution of weight, and the ability to transfer physical sensation we gain from exercise into tangible artistic output.
A movement class. Interplay between the body, the practice, and the artistic outcome.
Participants move continuously through a guided progression that builds from silence. A meditative grounding phase, before moving into anatomical activation followed by guided task based improvisation, signature exercises that layer technical rigidity with creative freedom. The transition towards artifact begins with reconstruction asking collaborators to help build movement phrases. I am interested in transforming the “burden of memory" that comes with phrasework into a shared project. Finally, collaborators use practice material to generate/output permanent tangible work (an artifact) (e.g., charcoal painting, film, photography, a sketchbook, music composition, digital tracing) based on the physical sensations of the practice session.
This inquiry is iterative. Practice requires silence for meditation, voice for active response, and rigorous repetition to refine.
We move, we pause, we document, and we evolve.
"Where the body meets the work, a practice emerges to transform the artistic experience into something that can never die."
These classes welcome movers and makers of all backgrounds, from curious beginners to advanced dancers seeking a professional environment.
You will sweat, move, and be invited to push your physical and creative limits at your own pace.
What to expect:
Come ready to move, barefoot or in socks, in clothing you feel comfortable sweating in.
