Pheobe Ricker- Rubber Bands, Strings, and Springs
from $0.00

Thursday 5/28
7-8:30PM @ & Space
1021 Hamilton Street, Floor 3

DESCRIPTION: In this class, we will play with ideas of energy storage and release, repetition and reversal, winding and unwinding-- thinking of our bodies as rubber bands, strings, or springs. We will increase awareness of the paths our bodies are taking through time and space and follow these threads back and forth by breaking choreography into symmetrical "halves". This class will offer both a mental and physical challenge to dancers across a wide range of abilities as we reframe how to intuitively process timing, direction, and transitions.

LEVEL: Beginner-Intermediate

MASKING: Masks optional but encouraged.

Dancers will feel appropriately challenged as long as they are aware of the basic structure of a typical contemporary dance class (warm up, stretch, learning short combinations) and know their own bodies' limits. Advanced strength, flexibility, and technique are not necessary to succeed in this class. Modifications will be provided to dancers who need them.
