PRIMAL daNCE PATTERNS - ZOOM

A 60-minute live Zoom call to restore coordination through rhythm


Live Zoom limited to 10 people.  


NEXT ONE-  SATURDAY JUNE 13--  4-5pm Pacific Time


Walking, catching yourself, changing direction, and getting up from the ground rely on coordinated rhythm — not force alone.


In this workshop, we explore gentle rhythmic movement patterns that help your strength organize itself in time.

You’ll experience:

• spiral loading

• elastic rebound (instead of bracing)

• bounce and push patterns common in older dances

• a few basic world dance patterns practiced with back-chain dominance and springy feet


This is not choreography.

No dance experience needed.


Monthly Saturday at 4:00 pm Pacific Time


$25 USD PER SESSION, $20 each for a set of 5 used within one year.
