Class Description: This class focuses on two core principles: awareness of the three-dimensional spine motion as the primary source of movement and the natural spiraling mobility of our bone structure as a healthy pattern to draw on our body.
Through safe movements, breath and softening work, we will flow organically and with ease from and to the floor through efficient and instinctual biomechanics which will build up into fluidity and momentum, with special attention to functional anatomy, points of support, and weight transfer to maximize movement potential.
