Using the Alexander Technique and Laban as the foundation, we’ll explore how to release tension, find balance, and make bold, clear physical choices. We’ll layer in Feldenkrais-inspired exercises to discover easier, more efficient ways of moving, along with fun partner work focused on counterbalance, timing, and connection. Expect a class that’s active, creative, and full of play, designed to help you feel more free, grounded, and expressive in your work.
