Class Description
A class for anyone who is seeking to develop strength, coordination, and flexibility. This class is designed to reunite the body, mind, and spirit, by utlizing the body’s natural breath rhythm and state of being before and after the performance of detailed exercises. The exercise sequences incorporate both isometrics and dynamic strength training movements, performed on the mat, and in standing position. This class combines the classical modern dance Katherine Dunham barre vocabulary, yoga, Pilates, integrated breathing exercises, and musicality to build stamina and coordination essential to the dancing body. No previous dance experience necessary.
