Sara Shelton Mann: Riding the Rapids

By

Riding the Rapids – Open Classes with Sara Shelton Mann

The class will begin with methods that cultivate chi, engage with information received through visual, kinesthetic, and auditory fields. Then: improvisational puzzles as technical skill; exploring pulse points wrapping the periphery into the core; the navel as an informational being; implied direction starting from the skin and moving into the layers of touch; surfaces of the body that implement quality; and space as a partner, both non-local and inwardly directed. We will begin with the feet, hands, and eyes reaching out into the world as gates into how we negotiate the terrain of our awareness. Researching different curves of energy flow.Questions?

I want dancing to be about more than just how beautiful and flexible the body is. I want it to serve a more complex vision of our humanity, that we are flailing and absurd and in the process of decay.
