Training the fundamental human attributes of awareness, co-ordination, strength, spring and balance in mind and body to engage with life in a constantly adapting state of play
A movement class harnessing and seeking the state of play to empower and reconnect to the body and each other, cultivating a sustainable physical practice that is insightful and fun. Learning as we play and through play, learning how to learn. Exploring Joint health and whole body unity through ancestral movement patterns and the power of play.
In the class we explore 2 main areas:-
Ancestral Forms
A balance between human ancestral movement patterns and whole-body forms from traditional arts and practices, to provide awareness and feedback to our dialogue with gravity and how we age.
Including:
Joint Articulations: To maintain joint health / preserve joint functionality and help better understand your own architecture.
Archetypal postures and Floor Play: to retune our bodies building strength and fluidity by refining the archetypal development patterns we made throughout our infancy and evolution.
Whole Body Coordination patterns: to promote harmonious movement, rhythmical connections and springiness.
