Instructor Kristina Fluty leads this gentle dance class drawing from Laban/Bartenieff, Feldenkrais, Alexander and release techniques. Appropriate for true beginners as well as experienced movers, this class is designed for each participant to progress at his or her own pace. Fluty blends sound movement and expressive principles with full-body and full-space engagement. The class usually begins on the floor with a developmental rolling/stretching warm-up, then progresses to a standing phrase of movement that focuses on core initiation and moving into larger spatially-engaged movement through the limbs. The latter portion of class includes applying the concepts addressed in the former part of class to movement that travels through space.
Register online with the Chicago Park District. Class is listed as "Modern Dance - Ages 18 & Over". Limited class size; early registration recommended.
NOTE: Registration for the 2012 Winter session is now closed. Please contact mollyshanahanmadshak@gmail.com if you are interested in attending.
