Its a Sound, Sensation, Self week!



There is a thrill when we investigate unfamiliar territory and discover new ways of moving, thinking, feeling, and expressing. The presence of change and living in the ‘now’ can cause discomfort as our body, mind, emotions and spirit transform, mold, and shape-shift. The inevitability of change can also inspire us to explore topics that we formerly eschewed because they caused us a certain amount of discomfort. This open-minded approach to learning and expansion applies to our movement, as we explore new ways of expressing our uniqueness.

Let’s play with Sound and Sensation this week, as we investigate uncharted ways of moving our Self. Using familiar steps and stances that our body recognizes, we will explore the creativity of our unique dance, finding our voice, our primal sounds, doing something different, and discovering the multitude of ways our body can express itSelf.


We are excited to introduce the new routine Touch at the weekend immersion March 1-3. Touch uses four ‘Touchstones’ as the focus… Eyes, Skin, Breath and Sound. As we play with sound this week, notice how sounds touch your body, inside and out… resonance, vibration, harmony, melody… they are all a part of life. Supported by silence, sound creates a music that gives us a background to dance through life.
