Utilizing Qi Gong-based principles and exercises, we will identify and engage the systems of the body. By practicing forms and visualizations, we will connect the corporeal to the energetic, the internal to the universal. This class is devoted to cultivating inner life force, discovering balance and rejuvenation.

Since 2008, Laurel Atwell has been living in Brooklyn and making work that has recently become more interdisciplinary. Laurel has also had the pleasure of collaborating with Tess Dworman; the two recently created WellMan, a class drawing from qi gong and meditation practices. Laurel has appeared in films by Laura Bartczak, studied qi gong and performed with Melanie Maar, edits the Dance Pamphlets for 53rd State Press, teaches qi gong, and is in the band Pine Island.
