Description

The workshop explores the relationship of the body thinking, the body processing, the body making, and the body performing. Does curiosity and examination of our own process produce knowledge? Using simple exercises; hands on work leading to improvisation; and other individual and group improvisational scores, we approach our bodies as places of inquiry where we can examine our movement patterns and interests and open ourselves to the possibility of change. This physical research is influenced by my over 40 years of study in somatic practices, primarily Klein Technique™, the Feldenkrais Method®, but also including techniques such as Alexander Technique® and Bodymind Centering®
