InnerDance:  2008 Spring into Summer

Continuum Movement Explorations:

                        As  we breathe, elongate, suspend & soar, we inquire about what it means

                                                                       to be a human body in these times.

Movement is life, life is movement: from the tiniest cellular quiverings in our organs to

                                             the larger dynamic expressions of fascia, bone & psyche;

we explore these elemental commonalities & mysteries with the global & beyond.

Come rest, breathe, arch, rediscover your waves & fluid origins: move, be moved,

touch, be touched, explore your fluidity & fire in a supportive environment.

Allow your animal body the embrace of :

Organic movement that listens, explores & challenges while creating core strength & flexibility

 intelligently support renewal, self-care and expression: awaken to the fullness of what it means to be alive!

Weaving Continuum, yoga & fluid healing arts we explore fluidity around the spine, breath & joint spaces with wave motion, gentle & expansive movements that enliven, increase mobility & self- discovery! 

All Continuum & Jungle Classes held in a spacious  Westside studio fully  equipped with Exploreboards,

small & large physioballs, rollers, chairs, ties, pelvic swing, cushions & other props for optional use & comfort.
