Overview of class

This is a level 1 movement class, designed to introduce concepts that will deepen the potential for expression in the moving body in performance practice, using weight, space, time and intention, through Spiral Body Techniques®. SBT® is the dance and movement framework developed by choreographer Molly Shanahan which promotes increasingly complicated spirallic and luscious whole-self-moving expression by increasing somatic awareness through imagery and anatomical experiencing. We will explore generative dance-making processes, and finish the quarter with a performance of the work we've co-created.
