Connections
CONNECTIONS CLASS SERIES

In this series, we will practice connections. 

Using the 5Rhythms map, during the first co-facilitated class and then for the three next consecutive classes, we will explore how we connect in flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness.  What happens when we connect with the beat, the music, or don't connect.   How do we connect with our feet, knees, hips, ribcage, shoulders, elbows, head, arms and hands?   How do we connect from up close, afar, in pairs, in small or large groups? How do we connect when we move across the dance floor.  When facing another person, side-by-side, back-to-back, in a chair, on the floor.  How do we connect and then disconnect from ourselves, from others? How do we maintain our own dance and still connect with another?  How do we connect with the greater whole.  Let's explore all the ways we connect in the 5Rhythms.  

Using the concepts of Open Floor, in the first co-facilitated class, and then the last class of the series, we will also explore how we connect on the dance floor using this approach, learning new concepts, shapes, words and movements, to expand our movement vocabulary.

You can attend the whole series or can just drop into certain sessions.
