UNWINDING: Wed Jan 21 & 28 6:00-6:50 stretch, soften, and reconnect to the body without pressure or expectation. Through grounded floor work and simple standing sequences, we explore release, circulation, and movement maintenance, with gentle conditioning woven in as appropriate. Taught in a primarily follow-along format, ample variations are offered alongside ongoing encouragement to adapt, pause, or modify in service of your own energy and needs on any given day. Designed as a supportive practice for dancers and movers, this class lives between rest and movement. Mats are optional; kneepads, socks, or bare feet are all welcome.
