“Imagine how alive you would be if your kinesthetic sense were to be heightened and cultivated beyond its present consciousness.”
–Anna Halprin
How can we enliven our potential to move and express ourselves? In this special series, participants will explore structured somatic movements devised by Anna Halprin that help relax the mind, expand range of movement, and spark creative expression. At the end of this 4-week series, participants create a personal mosaic of dances, drawings, and writings from previous weeks, cultivating and harvesting resources for greater awareness and embodied expression.
No dance or art experience needed.
To get the most out of this online series, please prepare a comfortable space to move in with access to your online device. Also, have art supplies ready at hand for drawing activities, and paper and pen for journaling and creative writing exercises.
