Feldenkrais® and Dance: Length for Free Expression For Dancers and Movement teachers, i.e. Pilates, Yoga, etc.
"Unnecessary effort accompanying an action tends to shorten the body." Moshe Feldenkrais The posture of dancers has been admired by many. If mastered with length it is the foundation for free movement and expression. If accomplished with tension it interferes with breathing and balance and can lead to injuries. In this workshop, we explore the absence of holding, discovering how owning our full height improves flexibility, balance, breathing and surprisingly allows us to access our strength like never before!

"Fabulous!!! I wish more teachers would be exposed to the ideas presented ... I think that injuries would be reduced, dancers would find the freedom to express themselves and the artistry of ballet and other forms of dance would grow. The emphasis of respecting the individual (student) but still giving them what they need to have 'proper ballet technique' is unique and valuable ... having attended four consecutive years I know how valuable the information is. Every year I learn something new!" - Heidi Gucinski Menocal, MD
