The studio-based Awareness Through Movement® classes and immersions are offered as individually-based explorations, within a group setting. They are a wonderful way to improve the way that you move and to better understand how you engage with yourself and the world. Slowing down and sensing ourselves allows us to better understand where we can experience more comfort, less effort, and greater pleasure in movement.
Join us for day full of floor fun! In this 1-day Awareness Through Movement® immersion we’ll get to know the ground.
Making friends with the floor. When you get to know the floor, you start to realize that it’s always there to greet you. In fact, the ground responds to your every action in it’s own way. A way known as the “Ground Reaction Force.”
What is Ground Reaction Force? Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion states that “For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.” According to that, when we walk or run, every time our foot lands, there is what is called a ‘Ground Reaction Force’ produced. In this intensive, we’ll explore a variety of lessons designed to help you soften and meet the ground with grace. More than that, you’ll discover how the ground reaction force acts as a ‘mirror’ and provides you with feedback so that we can adjust what we do. And you’ll discover how to use this new information and reciprocal force to improve all that you do.
Space is limited to eight. Registration is required.
