This class comes out of many years of movement study, curiosity and play. It weaves together my somatic leanings, movement improvisational scores, contact improv, authentic movement, contemplative dance, dance boot camp and fiercely dancing-my-ass-off-in-the-club.Original music compositions, pop-culture songs, and abstract sound weaves through each class. it is a mash up encouraging entanglement. It moves you and the class is moved by you.

Must pre-register. Let's figure out how to do this together.

MOVEMENT MEDICINE with Tracy Broyles

Most Wednesdays at 10-11:15. For questions and current schedule contact Tracy, tracy.k.broyles@gmail.com. more info tracybroyles.com

Class size is limited, $25/class.

Are you curious about how the energy of your mind, spirit, and emotions integrates with your physical body? Have you had experiences of moving your body and then feeling a big shift in your psyche? This class works directly with this integration and uses movement as medicine, dance as a resource, visualization as direct communication, and community as structural support.

Movement is the nature of all things in the universe.

This is a call and response to your own soul, a precise practice of unfolding the wisdom inside each of us through movement. 

Personal energy, community energy, universal energy- it is all accessible through deep listening to, and moving from the body. 

This class often begins with checking in and a conceptual teaching from Tracy, then comes into body activation with guided movement as the medicine for what ails us on that particular day. 

Tracy brings over two decades of experience facilitating embodiment, movement, and creative inquiry in small-group experiences and always aims to keep the approach fresh.

Movement Medicine Wednesday Class for those with somatic inquiry movement experience.

Deep listening, consent, self awareness, and play are integral parts of this dance form that will be highlighted at each jam. Every jam will include a mini class, open space to practice the form, and introductory lessons for those interested.

This jam space is exclusively for people who identify as LGBTQAI2S. Beginners and non-dancers are welcome.

Earth /Sky with Tahni Holt

Tuesday September 22nd / 6:30pm-8:00pm

$15-$30 // REGISTER HERE

Earth/Sky focuses on sensitivity practices through somatic inquiry, improvisational movement scores and Contemporary Alexander technique principles. Earth/Sky goes deep into inquires of grounding and gravitational support in one’s being. In Earth/Sky we swim into practices of embodiment where we sensitize into places we may be holding ourselves up, back, and/or in, and ask can we find movement through the cracks, can we rest into presence? Can we listen in on the dark recesses of our unconscious patterns? Can we integrate these practices in our everyday lives? Expect waves of rigorous movement exploration alongside slowed down sensorial capacity building practices. Prompts offer a starting point for exploration to facilitate new ways of moving and being. All are welcome, no prior movement experience needed.
Masks are optional.

$15-$30 (no one turned away from lack of funds)
 pre-registration required

Partnering Lab with Hannah Krafcik

Saturday September 26th 2pm-4pm

Suggested Sliding Scale: $5-20

This Partnering Lab will provide the opportunity to workshop sequences of movement involving lifts, counter balances, and collaborative inversions with careful attention to physics. After warming up, we will explore aspirational movement  together, trading roles when possible to ensure comprehensive understanding for all parties involved. This space will be loosely facilitated, and participants are invited to ideate, modify, and share their insights. Partnering lab is suitable for those with contemporary dance, acrobatics, and/or substantial contact improvisation experience.

Alignment is a Felt Sense with Emily Jones

Fall Series Fridays 9:30-11:30am

October 16th, 23rd & 30th, November 6th, 13th & 20th

Drop-in sliding scale $15-$30

In this class we will practice alignment as a dynamic process of sensing into ourselves, being present to our environment, and cultivating capacity to shift, as needed, to attend to our own physicality, energy and emotional states. Alignment describes relationships, it is self determined, from within, rather than imposed externally. In each class I will offer theory, choreography and improvisation scores to try on. This class is inspired by the Axis Syllabus, and will include concepts from anatomy, biomechanics and physics. Movement motifs will include rolling, crawling, spiraling and traversing through space. This class is open to all levels. Reach out with any questions: ejones248@gmail.com
