MORNING CLASS WITH VICKY SHICK

TUES 10am-12pm

Danspace Project, 131 E 10th St. New York, NY 10003

During this morning movement time we will warm up, ease our bodies, and energize ourselves as we work toward a fuller physicality/dancing together. All are welcome. We ready ourselves, beginning with a straightforward warm-up emphasizing physical mechanics, alignment, and clarity, with space for feedback from our bodies. We want to stimulate our awareness, articulation, and focus as we collaboratively uncover the intelligence in our bodies and arrive at dancing together. In phrase work, we hone our skills and deepen our physicality.
