No need to pre-register Saturday, July 24th WORKSHOP IN THE ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE WITH JANE CLANTON BICK The Alexander Technique is an experiential approach for learning how to move with dynamic ease and freedom. Underlying all of our movements is our natural coordination and flexibility of movement. Habitual tensions create pressures and strain in our bodies. Releasing excessive tension re-establishes natural posture and coordination. This approach to "body learning" is taught through hands-on guidance and concepts of functional anatomy and movement. The Alexander Technique is for anyone who wants to improve overall performance and gain a greater sense of ease and well-being. No prior experience is needed. The session will focus on walking, sitting, standing, and other activities that improve balance, flexibility and coordination.

Words are born in silence. Join us for an exploration of the voices of the body as a means to express and experience your own authentic, embodied voice. In every Nia class, we use sound as a means of engaging the core, of letting the bones speak, of intensifying the five sensations -- strength, stability, agility, flexibility and mobility - and of transformation. This workshop is designed to help students find their individual voice and to blend with the voices of the community. Date: TBA | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
