Our class adopts an approach that emphasizes joint mobility, flow, and movement from the spine to create dynamic shifts in balance and three-dimensional movement. By focusing on efficient movement that leverages the body’s natural functions rather than relying on strength, dancers are able to move more expansively and smoothly. We also emphasize dancing not only with the arms and legs but also with the spine and torso.In class, we focus on expanding the range of motion in the upper body and hips. For example, we perform extension and flexion movements while spiraling the upper body, and engage in warm-ups that incorporate femur rotation. We also work on integrating the entire body, creating powerful, unified movements that avoid isolating any one part. The goal is to help dancers create larger, more three- dimensional movements in a smarter, more efficient way —without relying on unnecessary force.
