CLASSIC MODERN DANCE  technique and repertory of Isadora Duncan, with master teacher Loretta Thomas, is designed for intermediate to advanced level dancers ages 16 to 25 (though all are welcome).  This class, based on Duncan’s original release technique, is infused with elements of ballet, Cunningham and Chinese movement forms to offer a balanced and healthy approach to dance training which: - Uses the breath to articulate the torso and open the heart chakra - Stabilizes alignment for greater freedom of movement - Improves strength and enhances expression in arms and legs through targeted use of gravity and resistance - Provides performance opportunities.

Classes are held at Moving Visions' peaceful loft studio in Tribeca, Mondays at 12 ongoing.                                                    $15 per class. Join us!
