On average, we have 206 bones, 360 joints, and ALL joints are fluid reservoirs. Therefore, every movement is created on water. Every movement. Feel it while you read this – Consider each of your joints as a center of your body. Joints are places of power, strength, and fluidity.
In this 3-hour workshop, we’ll play with the idea that our joints are centers of the body—not the brain, heart, gut, or bones. Through sensation, curiosity, and somatized imagination, we’ll enter a whirlwind of fluid communication. Dance and Somatics, continuously oscillating between practice, theory, improvisation, and play. The body as a field of inquiry and research, embodiment, and fierce physicality.
We rise and fall, flip and flop, flowing like fish through a river of movement. We relate, play, and dance spatially, becoming big beings. Together, we discover new possibilities for moving and allowing ourselves to be moved.
These classes use the Axis Syllabus as a foundation for moving through space. We will dance in solo and with others, our body in relationship and in playful research mode.
