Fall 2014 Classes
We've changed around our class schedule a little bit in an effort to better suit your interests. In addition to our regular classes we've also added some special 4- and 6-week workshops. Details about our special workshops can be found below. Register for classes by downloading the registration form at http://zuzimoveit.org
Special Workshops
This fall, we're offering some additional workshops in special areas of somatic education, including Improvisation, Skinner Releasing, and Dance Composition.
Skinner Releasing Technique (SRT)
No experience is necessary to enjoy this innovative approach to creativity and the healing arts which promotes postural alignment, movement efficiency, and tension reduction. Releasing weaves poetic imagery, music & tactile exercises to integrate the whole self and tap into the creative process for each individual. SRT is for anyone who wants to move in a new and enlivening way, find beauty in self discovery, or remove creative blocks, as well as dance choreographers and improvisers. $100 per 6-week session.
- Introductory Course runs Tuesdays October 14 - November 18 from 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM
- Ongoing Course runs Saturdays September 20 - October 25 from 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM
Improvisation Workshop
This class will introduce students to some basic forms, structures, and approaches to dance improvisation. Working with concepts from both Contact Improv and Compositional Improvisation, students will work to attune their attention to and awareness of their own bodies and movements, the other dancers in the space, and the composition of the dance as a whole. Through fun improv games and exploratory structures, students will develop techniques to help them create their own dances from scratch, developing material for choreography as well as for creating fully improvised dance pieces. We'll explore both solo improvisation methods, as well as ways to work together in duets and groups, building skills of sensitivity and kinesthetic communication, and having tons of fun in the process! $50 for 4-week session.
- Improvisation Workshop runs Fridays October 10 - November 14 from 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM
Dance Composition
This 6-week workshop will explore the principles of dance composition and the dance-making process through improvisational structures leading into choreography of solos and trio dances. $80 for 6-week session.
- Composition Class runs Tuesdays October 7 - November 11 from 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM
