Jo’s class will begin by exploring non-stylized movements and ideas informed by bodywork practices.
Focus is given to mechanics and alignment, awakening the support and connections that transfer force and movement through the body.
As class progresses we will explore varied ranges of movement that continue warming up and moving through space with a deepening awareness of ourselves, the space and the group. Phrase material progresses from simple to increasingly complex and encourages the dancer’s individual expression to be explored.
