The class will focus on the fluidity between the skeleton and muscularity. An ability to flow easily through the body and movements by using the skeleton as a motivator to move. We will explore the transitions of how the bones and joints can affect the rest of the body. As counterpoint to explore musculair tention that also drive the movement through the body. A strong physicality between these points will be implemented to work on stamina and agility. The class will zoom in on the release of the joints and the release of muscle tension, creating room to use this fluidity technique economically. The class is half supervised and half improvised.
