Class today is Contemporary Dance w/ Josie Weise
Josie’s class invites ease into the joints and body through imagery and positive mental priming to access freedom, spaciousness and energy. The class will begin slow, working through some somatic tracing and stretches to identify and release unnecessary tension. We’ll go inwards to heighten awareness of our internal experience and maintain this sensitivity as we move outwards through improvisation and phrases—encouraging expansive travel and freedom in the body.
