About the course

How do we use our bodies? How can we be and move with greater freedom, efficiency and quality? We will tune into our body  by paying attention to weight, tone, breath, joint mobility, and where and how we move. We will practice various ways of moving and organizing our gesture, action or movement.

We will explore and discover  from exercises involving touch, visualization, senso-perception, with simple movement sequences and movement exploration. Through a fine and deep listening we will work individually, with the help of various materials and other classmates.

We will use various works, practices and learning methods such as: experiencial anatomy, sensory awareness, feldenkrais method,  movement exploration and Dance.

The practice of this work will help us find a healthier and more available body, with more freedom  in decisions and actions, both in everyday movements or in sports and body work. In dance it will offer us efficiency and richness in qualities and nuances.
