Functionality And Perspective In Dance is the culmination of Judith Sánchez Ruíz’s year-long investigation in release technique. All classes are focused on the importance of being grounded. You will be working around initiation and arrival; visceral and organic movement. The class builds up stamina, but at the same time creates a deeper understanding of the shifting of weights, clarity of movements, attention to details, and precision and dynamics in a multidirectional approach. Expect to wake up your imagination with a functionally aware body!
