Jo’s class involves stimulating the physical, through the memory and imaginary, working with varying energetic states, patterns, perception and negotiations.

She includes a progressive warm -up, engaging with technical articulations and traditional physical methods, which are endlessly evolving and prepare the body. She utilises language to perpetuate and stimulate - encouraging the attempt of particular physical investigations. She has an interest in the possibility that the body knows the dance, and by re-entering the body, we find ways to access and allow for it.
