Dances of Presence & Flow

Skinner Releasing Technique is an integrative and poetic approach to movement, dance and creative process developed by American dance artist Joan Skinner (1924-2021).
It stimulates the process of letting go of unnecessary tension, releasing new possibilities in how we perceive and how we dance. Through poetic imagery, hands-on studies, and movement exploration, one experiences qualities such as effortlessness, multi-directional alignment, presence and freedom, in movement and stillness.
Following the morning SRT class, releasing principles will inform and inspire the improvisational work in the afternoon.
As we engage with a fluid awareness, and follow the pathways of movement traveling through the body, the flow of attention and energy provides ease and clarity within our actions. We are ready to walk, roll, fall, curl, fold, dive, jump, fly...
Listening to the ongoing interplay of our imagination and action, we can participate fully in the material we create while dancing and composing.

Please note: This workshop is for experienced dancers and all of those with a committed movement practice.
