mind. Class is very physical and demanding from the point of movements, qualities, creativity and challenges which students have to face. It teaches to feel and perceive movement differently, to move more powerful and efficiently in space, to incorporate less usage of energy and most importantly - teach how to enjoy and find yourself in a variety of dance techniques and movements.
“Free limits” is 100% of joy, 90% of working with limits, 80% of creativity, 70% of active body training, 60% of floorwork, 50% of challenges, 40% of energy connectivity, 30% of partnering, 20% of spiritual practice, 10% of personal judgment, 0% of failure.
